Getz/Gilberto, is an album released by American Stan Getz and Brazilian João Gilberto, featuring Antonio Carlos Jobim, in 1964. Its release created a bossa nova craze in the United States , and subsequently internationally. It brought together saxophonist Stan Getz, who had already performed the genre on his LPJazz Samba, João Gilberto (one of the creators of the style), and Jobim, a celebrated Brazilian songwriter, who wrote most of the songs in the album. It became one of the best-selling jazz albums of all times, and turned singer Astrud Gilberto, who sang on the track of "The Girl from Ipanema" and "Corcovado", into an international sensation. An interesting tidbit about this recording is that producer Creed Taylor kept the recording in a drawer for a year before releasing it, for reasons known only to him.
It won the 1965 Grammy Awards for Best Album of the Year, Best Jazz Instrumental Album - Individual or Group and Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical. "The Girl from Ipanema" also won the award for Best Record of the Year.
In 2003, the album was ranked number 454 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.

*Há a questão do crédito de quem gravou o baixo. Algumas fontes creditam Tommy Williams como sendo o baixista. Outras dão o crédito a Sebastião Neto, um dos grandes nomes que passaram pelo Beco das Garrafas, em Copacabana.
