Girl from Ipanema - Tom Jobim, Frank Sinatra and Andy Williams

Classic rendition as musically brilliant as it is hilarious for Frank's wrestling with the pronunciation of Ipanema, and his huge clouds of ciggie smoke. It's eepaneema, Boss, not erpanayma nor eepanayma. But, hey, whatever you want to do!

Hard to top this version, too. Remember counterpoint?



Antonio Carlos Jobim died 13 years ago tomorrow in New York City. He was 67. We miss you, Tom.
