Product description

Dive into the sultry rhythms of Brazil with Cannonball Adderley's "Cannonball's Bossa Nova," a timeless jazz album that captures the essence of bossa nova's early 1960s craze. Originally released in July 1963 on Riverside Records, this album showcases the legendary alto saxophonist's smooth and soaring style, accompanied by the talented Bossa Rio Sextet, featuring the incomparable Sérgio Mendes on piano. The album's ten tracks, including the haunting "Clouds" and the upbeat "Groovy Samba," blend the intricate melodies of bossa nova with the improvisational spirit of jazz, creating a sound that is both innovative and inviting.

"Cannonball's Bossa Nova" is a testament to Cannonball Adderley's versatility and his ability to seamlessly integrate different musical influences. The album's production, overseen by the renowned Orrin Keepnews, ensures that every note is crisp and clear, allowing the listener to fully appreciate the intricate interplay between Adderley's saxophone and the rhythm section's infectious grooves. Whether you're a long-time fan of jazz or a newcomer to the genre, this album is sure to captivate you with its infectious rhythms and Adderley's signature sound. The album's reissues on Capitol Records, with different covers and titles, have helped to keep this classic album in the spotlight, introducing it to new generations of listeners. With a runtime of just over 45 minutes, "Cannonball's Bossa Nova" is the perfect way to spend an afternoon or evening, letting the smooth sounds of bossa nova wash over you.

Silent, High-Quality Pressing
5 out of 5 stars
DaddijJanuary 11, 2026United States🇺🇸
Excellent pressing, not a single click, pop, or tick... Silence between tracks, perfectly flat, outstanding sound quality and all at this price... Anyone have an idea what the source was?
Incorrect Opening and Track Time
5 out of 5 stars
xotcseaNovember 24, 2025United States🇺🇸
In my version of this record, the opening is on the incorrect side, or perhaps the prints are reversed. Whichever way you wish to interpret it. When the album is placed on the shelf, the back cover is oriented to the right. Has anyone else encountered this flaw in their copy? Additionally, the time duration for the (Sambop) track on side B, track 4, is inaccurate on the label. It's noted as 2:36, but the actual length is 3:34.

The sound quality of this pressing is fantastic! I made sure to give it a good clean in the ultrasonic cleaner before playing it.

In my version of this record, the opening is on the incorrect side, or the prints are reversed. Whichever way you prefer to see it. When the album is on the shelf, the back cover is facing to the right. Has anyone else noticed this issue with their copy? The time duration for (Sambop) track B4 is wrong on the label. It's stated as 2:36, but the actual length is 3:34.
