Description:

Recorded in 1963, ‘The Composer of Desafinado Plays’ documents the beginning of what would become a long-term creative relationship between Jobim and arranger Claus Ogerman.
Although there was initial resistance by producers, Jobim not only plays guitar but piano as well in his debut for Verve.
Jobim is joined by George Duvivier (bass), Edison Machado (drums), Leo Wright (flute), Jimmy Cleveland (trombone) and full strings on the 12-song instrumental set that features such bossa nova classics as ‘Corcovado’, ‘The Girl from Ipanema’, ‘Agua de Beber’ and more.
The Verve Vault series is always mastered from analog tapes and pressed on 180g vinyl at Optimal.
