Bobby Hackett  & Billy Butterfield - 1967 Brasil

This Verve LP was the result of a long friendship between Bobby Hackett and trumpeter Billy Butterfield, who, in their early careers, were vitually indistinguishable (as pointed out by Richard Sudhalter in “Lost Chords”) – although by this time their individual styles had evolved to become uniquely their own.  All of the selections are rendered in bossa nova style, quite popular in the 60’s.  One of my father’s favorite Hackett albums.
