Charlie Byrd is perhaps best known for his pivotal role in popularizing Brazilian bossa nova in the United States. A jazz guitarist, Byrd was notably impressive and most comfortable using his C.F. Martin classical guitar in the jazz idiom, with a finger technique he learned from Spanish classical master-mentor Andrés Segovia. He was raised in a jazz family and was heavily influenced by legends like Django Reinhardt. Fame really took off for Byrd following his 1962 collaboration with Stan Getz. This exciting collection of Jazz ‘n’ Samba was recorded back in 1965, with Byrd very much in his musical prime. The Hindsight label is the first to have access to these original and rare master tapes. Commemorating the 60th anniversary of these special recordings, Hindsight’s Jazz Rewind label issues them for their first ever vinyl pressing, pressed on heavyweight colour LP. Enjoy latin rhythms and beautiful guitar moments, with a guest appearance from Herb Ellis.
