Astrud Gilberto - The Girl From Ipanema (12“ version)
Buy / Stream the album:
I realised I was going to a second hand record store, with the same mindset as going to a shop specialised in new releases. I was looking for something new, but in a place that carried essentially old things!By “new” of course I mean fresh and unheard of, and although there are quite a few things on my want list I’d be happy to tick off, I find it more exciting to discover that good song that is not on there.
There is some kind of evolution in music collecting, the more you complete one genre, the more you move to a sub genre, a sub, sub genre, eventually branching out to different musical paths, to avoid being stuck in dead ends.
It turns out records I would overlook a few years back, are the ones I feverishly hunt now !One of many such sub genres I grew up to love over the years, is a type of Disco that I could best describe as Cocktail Disco.I believe this style was called Sleaze back in its days, from roughly 1976 to 1979. There were even DJs specialized in the Sleaze sound which was usually played after hours, in spots with a strong sex oriented Disco has that ubiquitous 4/4 beat and flying open high hat, complemented by rich orchestrations, campy over the top vocals, and an often tropical latin vibe. Something that wouldn’t feel out of place in a broadway musical.
