"The Girl From Ipanema" #5 7/18/1964 Bonus

From July '64, probably the best selling Brazilian bossa nova song ever, written about a girl who would walk past a bar each day along the Ipanema beachfront in Rio. Our female protagonist claimed to be the first to wear a bikini on that stretch of sand, and said she was just buying cigarettes daily for her mother. The sax of Stan Getz and vocals of Astrud Gilberto are superb.
