João Gilberto is a bossa nova album by João Gilberto, originally released in Brazil as a vinyl LP in 1973 and reissued on CD in 1988.

The minimal instrumentation – just Gilberto's guitar and voice, plus Sonny Carr's very sparse percussion – and the relentless beat give the album a hypnotic feel.

The album's sound engineer was famous electronic music pioneer Wendy Carlos.

It was listed by Rolling Stone Brazil as 47th of the 100 best Brazilian albums in history.
