Bossa Antigua
Bossa Antigua is an album recorded by American jazz saxophonist Paul Desmond featuring performances recorded in 1964 which were released on the RCA Victor label. The album title is a word play on bossa nova (in English, "the new thing"), the genre of Brazilian music that inspired the album. "Bossa Antigua" loosely translates in English to "old thing", though "antigua" is a Spanish word rather than Portuguese ("bossa antiga" would be a more accurate Portuguese translation of Desmond's joke). Antigua is also the name an island in the West Indies popular with North American tourists.
