Biography [ edit ]
Wanderley was born in Recife, Brazil . Already famous in his native country by the late 1950s, he became an internationally renowned star in the mid-1960s through his collaboration with the singer Astrud Gilberto .
He recorded six albums on the Verve label between 1966 and 1968. Three of those albums, Rain Forest Cheganca and Astrud Gilberto 's A Certain Smile, A Certain Sadness Claudio Slon (drums) and Jose Marino (bass) and were produced in the United States by Creed Taylor , who initially brought the trio to the U.S. to record at the persuasion of Tony Bennett . Wanderley's U.S. recording of Summer Samba Billboard charts[2] Popcorn Luiz Henrique Rosa . Around that same period Wanderley also established the Carnival with Bob Matthews, João Palma, José Soares, and Janis Hansen ; all former members of Sérgio Mendes' Brasil '66 .
After the trio disbanded (though they were briefly reunited in 1971 for "The Return of the Original" on Canyon Records ), Wanderley himself continued to record albums on Verve, A&M/CTI, and GNP Crescendo. During that time, he also made numerous personal appearances, including a concert tour of Mexico.[2]
Wanderley was known for his distinctive staccato stuttering style and mastery of the Hammond B-3 organ and on later recordings and during live concerts an L Series Hammond.
