We are into the second week of the Rio Olympics and that calls for the most obvious song of all to celebrate the ultimate sporting occasion. I've already had "Girl From Ipanema" on this blog - but this version, although without Joao Gilberto, is worth it for capturing a snapshot of the times.... when Bossa Nova was king. This was from the 1964 film 'Get Yourself a College Girl' and here it features Astrud Gilberto and Stan Getz with the Stan Getz Quartet. Thanks Rio.
