I was sad to learn that Astrud Gilberto has died. Her album Getz/Gilberto is my favorite Bossa Nova. album. "The Girl From Ipanema" and "Corcovado" get me every time.

I was sad to learn that João Gilberto has died. He may have invented Bossa Nova. I particularly love his work with Astrud Gilberto, Antônio Carlos Jobim and Stan Getz.
