speaking of Bossa Nova i'd combine two of the names already dropped here.

Antonio Carlos Jobim is the man when it comes to the style, and the albums he recorded with Stan Getz are freaking awesome. (Jazz Samba and The Jazz Samba Encore!). personally i prefer the Encore!, the first album features Charlie Byrd on guitar and gets too noodle-y for the style. the Encore is nice and subdued, Luiz Bonfa plays guitar on that one being Brazilian as well and it just works a little better for me, the album comes across as darker but i love it. one of my all time favourites.

speaking of Mingus, i think its safe to say his track Boogie Stop Shuffle was a likely inspiration to some of those old Spiderman soundtrack pieces.
