A modern sound but in the tradition of bossa nova. >FWIW Joao and Astrud Gilberto were formerly married and later divorced. > In fact, they were on tour just after "Girl from Ipanema" hit big - in Rome. They had a fight of some kind, Joao, according to legend, went walking in the street and found a stray kitten. Astrud took the opportunity to leave. Joao came home from the tour with the kitten - Astrud went to New York and joined a combo with Stan Getz (who played sax on Girl from Ipanema). un abrazo, juan ------------------------------ End of basia-digest V6 #100 ***************************
