Early 1963 Deep-Groove Pressing — 63-VGS Lacquers
This is the desirable early MGM-era stereo pressing with deep groove labels and matching 63-VGS-512 / 63-VGS-513 runouts. Cut from original lacquers in 1963 and housed in the correct thick gatefold jacket. Preferred by Verve jazz collectors for its mastering quality.

⭐ Description
Offered here is a clean, well-preserved 1963 US stereo gatefold pressing of Jazz Samba Encore! — the iconic follow-up to Stan Getz’s groundbreaking Jazz Samba. This album pairs Getz with Brazilian guitar master Luiz Bonfá and features contributions from Antonio Carlos Jobim and vocalist Maria Toledo.
This pressing carries the correct V6-8523 black/silver Verve label with the ‘T’-logo, confirming a 1963–64 MGM-era cut.
The audio quality of these early Verve stereos is outstanding — warm, open, and highly dynamic.

✅ Why This Copy Is Better Than Most
There are a lot of tired VG and VG– examples of this album floating around. Clean early gatefolds are noticeably scarcer.
This copy stands out because:
✅ Glossy VG+ vinyl, no deep marks
✅ Original Verve inner sleeve (many are replaced or missing)
✅ Gatefold in VG+ shape, not crushed or split
✅ Correct early MGM label variation, preferred by collectors
---
✅ Track Highlights
• Menina Flor
• Saudade Vem Correndo
• Ebony Samba
• Só Danço Samba
• O Morro Não Tem Vez
A perfect blend of Getz’s breezy melodic phrasing and Bonfá’s expressive Brazilian guitar.
