Bola Sete – At The Monterey Jazz Festival

More Bola Sete

More Bossa Nova

  • Sete’s superb trio album from 1967 (one of only a handful of copies to hit the site in two years), here with solid Double Plus (A++) grades or close to them throughout this vintage Stereo Verve pressing
  • We are big fans of Bola Sete here – his Tour De Force has been a favorite of ours for more than twenty years (if only we could find clean, good sounding copies to sell)
  • This is always the problem with acoustic guitar jazz – there are just too many quiet passages where the surface noise will be audible
  • This copy not only sounds great, but it is reasonably quiet for a vintage Verve pressing
  • Recorded in 1966, this side one boasts remarkably natural guitar sound, as well as note-like bass and the kind of energy you rarely get outside of a live performance, and side two is not far behind in all those areas
