Description:
Most die-hard Brazilian music fans would argue that Getz/Gilberto, the iconic 1964 album featuring "The Girl from Ipanema," is not the best bossa nova record. Yet we've all heard "The Girl from Ipanema" as background music in a thousand anodyne settings, from cocktail parties to telephone hold music. So how did Getz/Gilberto become the Brazilian album known around the world, crossing generational and demographic divides'



Bryan McCann traces the history and making of Getz/Gilberto as a musical collaboration between leading figure of bossa nova Jo Eo Gilberto and Philadelphia-born and New York-raised cool jazz artist Stan Getz. McCann also reveals the contributions of the less-understood participants (Astrud Gilberto's unrehearsed, English-language vocals; Creed Taylor's immaculate production; Olga Albizu's arresting, abstract-expressionist cover art) to show how a perfect balance of talents led to not just a great album, but a global pop sensation. And he explains how Getz/Gilberto emerged from the context of Bossa Nova Rio de Janeiro, the brief period when the subtle harmonies and aching melodies of bossa nova seemed to distill the spirit of a modernizing, sensuous city.

33 1/3 Global, a series related to but independent from 33 1/3, takes the format of the original series of short, music-based books and brings the focus to music throughout the world. With initial volumes focusing on Japanese and Brazilian music, the series will also include volumes on the popular music of Australia/Oceania, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and more.

Non-greasy and absorbs quickly
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I really like this sunscreen. It’s very lightweight and absorbs quickly without leaving a white cast or greasy feeling like other sunscreens. I use it every day and it feels very comfortable on the skin, even under makeup. It provides great protection and doesn’t irritate my skin. The size is also convenient to carry in a bag. I definitely recommend it if you’re looking for something effective and lightweight.

Best sunscreen
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
My favorite sunscreen. Been buying if for 2 years and still a great product. It goes on easily and does not make your skin greasy or sweaty. It does not cause breakouts either.

Amazing moisturizer for all skin types!
Size: 19 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I absolutely love this CeraVe Moisturizing Cream! It keeps my skin soft, smooth, and well-hydrated all day long. I use it on both my face and body, and it doesn’t feel greasy at all. It’s very gentle and perfect even for sensitive skin. I also like that it has no strong scent. A little goes a long way, and the size is great for the price. I highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a reliable daily moisturizer!

It's not glamorous but it works wonders - even while I am on Accutane!
Size: 19 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This is the best, most luxurious lotion I have ever used. And the only lotion that I can even stand to be on my skin. I started Accutane (for acne) last year and was told that my skin would dry out horribly and that I needed to find a good moisturizer to limit the peeling and cracking that I would inevitably experience. Prior to the medicine my skin was oily and very acne prone and every lotion that I had tried either made me feel like I was wearing a latex suit or broke me out horribly. After doing some research I read that this was a great solution and figured I would give it a try. I started it out right away to try to avoid getting dry and was shocked at how well it worked. Even at the beginning when I was still oily this lotion never felt too heavy. Now don't get me wrong-it goes on like frosting and initially feels like a lot-but within minutes it soaks in and leaves your skin feeling like a little kids (not the sticky kind of little kid though-the good clean little kids with undamaged skin). It will last for days too. No need to reapply because it has soaked in to your skin and doesn't just sit on the surface. My skin has never been this soft. And here I am, nearly 9 months in to my Accutane medication regimen and I am not flaking or peeling. In fact, my skin has never looked better or more healthy. My doctors are shocked at how my skin has stayed moisturized because nearly everyone peels. And it doesn't break you out which is obviously something super important. Now, could I be an anomoly? Maybe, but I don't think so. I honestly think this lotion is Just. That. Good! The price isn't bad either!
