Dadi can be found everywhere in the history of the brazilian music. He was a member of the famous band Novos Baianos, he played in the legendary album "África Brasil" (1976) of Jorge Ben, he was a member of the band A Cor do Som, was a muse for Caetano Veloso's "Leãozinho", is the forth member of Tribalistas and, tireless, he just released his first solo album. And to complete, he has the same face and energy of a 20 year old boy.
As you get to know him is easy to understand why and how Dadi was everywhere at the same time with a lot of different talented people. He is extremely nice and his enthusiasm and good humor are contagious and his musicality totally natural.
SIDE A - SE ASSIM QUISER
(if you want so)
august 2007 - são paulo (sp) - on the roof
We've met him in the hotel where he was staying, where Dadi himself organized the day of shooting. Alongside with the bodyguard of the hotel, we went up to the roof of the building, which gave us a panoramic view of the city. Upthere, Dadi played his side A, "Se assim quiser" (Dadi/Arnaldo Antunes). This song was already recorded by Arnaldo in his cd "Saiba" (2004), but here is a sweeter version of the song that talks about the freedom of the freetime you have to spent your salary.
SIDE B - DOIS PERDIDOS
(two losts)

Some floors down, in the pool, Dadi played "Dois perdidos" (Dadi/Arnaldo Antunes), his side B. This song, was also previously recorded by Arnaldo on his most recent record "Qualquer" (2006). And, here, one more time, Dadi gave his discreet and captivating personality to this song, that talks about two people lost in the same relashionship.
