Frank Sinatra and Antônio Carlos Jobim - The Girl From Ipanema
I got a little bit of help this week from my trusty 1000 best albums of all time book. Every now and then I leaf to the page of the week, so this week that brought me as far as page 115 and a 1967 album from Frank Sinatra and Antônio Carlos Jobim and I must say it's a gem.
Over the years I've always enjoyed dipping into this book for a recommendation. Back in the day, I'd have to head down to the record store called Zhivago and buy the album, but since the advent of Spotify it is much easier to pick and random page and dip into a random album. The book covers 1955 to 2007 and includes such variety and briliance.
So, this week I bring you the self titled album Francis Albert Sinatra & Antônio Carlos Jobim and three of my favourites from it. Let's get things going with the opening track The Girl From Ipanema.
Frank Sinatra and Antônio Carlos Jobim - I concentrate on you
This is the trusty book which has given me much musical enlightenment over the years, before I had Three Tune Tuesday to help me with my yearning for new music.
The sun was even shining today as I re-listened to this album and picked out the three songs to share. Trust me the sunshine was welcome, as we have had a lot of rain here in recent days, weeks, months!
Frank Sinatra and Antônio Carlos Jobim -
Well I hope you are enjoying this journey back to 1967 so far, and if you enjoyed the previous two songs and this last one, then be sure to check out the full album, it's very easy listening and worth 28 minutes and 34 seconds of your time.
Here is page 115 that I flicked to earlier on when trying to pick a trio of songs for today's Three Tune Tuesday.
Now, it's time to pick a song to close out this week's songs, and I will go for Baubles, Bangles and Beads, the second last song from this 1967 album, I hope you enjoyed them.
Three Tune Tuesday
That's right, it's Tuesday folks and for our merry little band of ladies and lads, that means sharing tunes, good vibes and engagement. As another week disappears in the rearview mirror, we have loads of engagement and tunes flying around on Three Tune Tuesday and sure isn't that bloody fantastic! I hope you're ready to share three tunes from wherever you find yourself on this magical spinning lump of rock that we all call home and sure you might even sing us a tune if we're lucky?
It's a time of the week when lovers of music, tunes and craic bring their blockchain community three of their finest and brightest tunes to share and celebrate, so let's roll on and let the tunes flow free.
This is my 115th week waxing lyrical for Three Tune Tuesday and we are still going strong.
It started off with me just sharing tunes into what seemed like a void, but little by little others joined and now I'm thrilled that we have a little corner of Hive where we come and share our tunes every Tuesday, and long may it continue. I almost stopped posting the songs and thoughts a few times, but I stuck with it and now interestingly it is my favorite thing about Hive. I love music and now I have a network of folks around the world who love music too and we share our tunes and catch up with each others tunes and discuss them each week. We get Pop, Metal, Rock, Gospel, Folk, Jazz, Rap, Hip-Hop, Trip-Hop, Reggae, Bippy bappidy Flange Hop. Ok I made that one up, but you get the idea, we are all learning about new artists, bands, back stories and sure isn't it just mighty!
Something that excites me the most is that we even get musicians sharing their covers of famous songs and even their own songs from time to time here on #ThreeTuneTuesday, which is a real favorite of mine, as that takes talent, time and dedication.
We are adding New posters and retaining our core of regulars here on #TTT which is fantastic. Let's keep it growing. Weekly, I try to find four to six hours to listen to all of the fantastic music shared from like-minded folk from around the globe and interact with their posts. This has led me to genres I don't know well and to some amazing new bands and artists and has even introduced me to some musical instruments I did not know existed. It also allows me to upvote smaller accounts and find some really interesting people from all over the world, which is heartening.
I hope you enjoy the tunes - be sure to tell me all about it in the comments below and above all else, please enjoy the rest of your Tuesday - smile at a stranger, rub a dog, be a nice human to someone who was not expecting it - peace out.
For those unfamiliar with TTT or Three Tune Tuesday....
