Another outing for the black armbands today, with the news that the very lovely Astrud Gilberto has departed for Fabulon - accompanied by the gentle sounds of bossa nova guitars, no doubt.
Without further ado, let's celebrate the great lady's sublime talents...
...and, of course, the song for which she is most remembered [one of the most-covered songs of all time, apparently]...
RIP, Astrud Gilberto (born Astrud Evangelina Weinert, 29th March 1940 – 5th June 2023)
