4.0 out of 5 stars Funky Brazilian jazz fusion, May 15, 2005
This review is from: Bad Donato (Audio CD)
This is a reissue of a 1970 album that many consider a jazz fusion benchmark. Brazilian pianist/arrangers Joao Donato and Eumir Deodato team up with an all-star cast, including fellow Brazilian expatriate Dom Um Romao and plenty of heavyweight North American jazz players to produce an energetic, somewhat aggressive set, built around Donato's electric piano work and a big, big beat. If you like "Bitches Brew"-era Miles Davis, or those early Chick Corea albums, you might really dig this album.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Bossa-Funk Classic, July 2, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Bad Donato (Audio CD)
This is a classic early 1970's recording of super-funky Brazilian music of the highest order. I first heard of this record by a DJ friend of mine. He played a few tunes in his regular set and I was floored. When this re-release came up on Amazon I jumped immediately.

The liner notes explain how the record came to be. Joao Donato had already made a name for himself in Brazil with his lovely jazz sound and piano playing, and he was invited to make this record at his complete discretion. He brought in a cadre of fine musicians and made a tight collection of incredibly funky and influential tunes. If you grew up in the 1970's, you will hear all those cop show themes in this music - it's clear where they got their influence!

This is jazz/Brazilian/funk at it's greatest. If you have any interest in those sultry Carioca sounds, instrumental grooves, funky breaks or just like to hear an electric piano get a workout, this is a must-have.
