A quite remarkable 1962 news report on the  "the music and the cult called bossa nova."  A full 7-1/2 minutes long. Amazing footage and an amusing journalist's frame to the story.

I thought that was surprisingly insightful and respectful from the 1962 United States perspective.  So many pieces like that from that era take a dismissive tone.  This really seemed like they were trying to understand what the music was about.  Thanks so much for posting!

I like them LA dancers.

Man, the complete show is something else with an extended performance of One Note Samba by Jobim and Mulligan joining in. Related: Anybody know who the trumpet player is in the California club scene?
