This week, we’re calling the show Blame It on The Bossa Nova, like the title of the famous song. By the early 1960s, the bossa nova, that cool beat from Brazil, was all the rage. We’re taking a wide look at all the bossa nova sounds that came out during its peak from those wonderful recordings of bossa nova standards to more, let's say, interesting recordings from those jumping on the trend. We’ll hear from Eydie Gorme, Paul Anka, The Hi-Lo's, and many more.
