On this 1970 album, Brazilian pianist João Donato left his bossa nova roots behind to record an eclectic mix of funk, fusion and psychedelic rock and pop with the crème de la crème of Los Angeles-based session musicians. Brazil's Rolling Stone named "A Bad Donato" one of the "100 Best Albums in Brazilian Music" in 2007. /// Verve By Request: remastered, audiophile 180-gram vinyl from Third Man Pressing / Detroit, gatefold sleeve.
