Brazilian singer Astrud Gilberto, who in her 20s recorded “The Girl from Ipanema” and became an international star, has died, according to social media posts from her granddaughter and on behalf of her son. No cause of death was immediately available. She was reportedly 83

 

She was one of my favorites and May she rest in Peace!

Oh that is sad news indeed.

She always seemed to be living forever young in the memory as if time could not touch her.

Her beautifully recorded 1968 Windy album remains one of my absolute personal favourites. It's a wonderfully uplifting listen, perfect for a summer's day.
