Probably the most talented bossa nova group of the ‘60s, Tamba Trio perfected a breezy, swinging version of bossa vocal-pop that proved incredibly influential in Brazil and throughout the world. Presented here is their homonymous debut album, Tamba Trio, along with their following LP, Avanço. “O Barquinho,” from the former disc, became a big hit in Brazil, and their reading of Jorge Ben’s “Mas, que nada!” became their best-known hit and was used most famously by Nike in a 1998 World Cup television commercial.
