Impex's 1Step "Getz/Gilberto" Tells The Full Story Sonically And Otherwise As far as I'm concerned, Impex has delivered one of the most impressive reissue packages in the history of "the vinyl revival" era. You'll appreciate the care that went into it as you listen
Sonically, Impex has taken a very good recording and added a sense of fluidity, immediacy, and dimensionality that raises it to truly transparent state-of-the-art levels. Listen closely and you can almost sense the temperature in the studio and measure the distance between musicians
Getz/Gilberto is a vinyl showpiece of sonic naturalism and superb artistry that puts most vinyl reissues to shame. An extraordinary effort. - TAS

There have been more than 40 U.S. releases (and hundreds more worldwide) of Stan Getz's cultural touchstone album and for good reason: few recordings better capture the breezy warmth and easy-going sophistication of Brazilian bossa nova for an American jazz audience. Fewer recordings can replicate the you-are-there presence and flawlessly tight studio acoustics. Only Getz/Gilberto has Billboard Top-10-charting singles like "The Girl from Ipanema.
" When Impex Records jumps into this densely-populated fray with our own production, we need to bring maximum value and prestige to it. Challenge accepted. We worked directly with Stan's wife Monica Getz and their son Nicolaus to create the most authentic, best-presented Getz/Gilberto ever.
