{"product_id":"lotus-72-d-5024017003194","title":"LOTUS 72 D","description":"A certified Holy Grail of Brazilian music and our most requested reissue! Fast or 'normal'? You decide - we have cut both 'versions' here. Official Mr Bongo reissue. Licensed from Ze Roberto. Ze Roberto aka Joaquim Roberto Braga is a composer, singer and instrumentalist from Brazilian folk music roots. 'Lotus 72 D' is a tribute to the Brazilian Formula 1 world champion driver of 1972, Emerson Fittipaldi. In Roberto's own words: \"Lotus 72 D is a tribute to the sensational talent of Formula 1 driver, Emerson Fittipaldi, was was crowned world champion in 1972. I can't remember the names of the musicians who participated in the recording because they were hired by the original record label, RCA\/Victor. The production team consisted of artistic co-ordinator, Henrique Gastaldello, and arranger, Severino Filho. The year of recording was 1973. I'm not aware of another fast version of the song 'Lotus 72 D'... My contract with the RCA\/Victor was for 2 years. All my musical works belongs to me.\" The mystery surrounding the 'fast version' stems from the Via Brazil compilation from 2001 - the version featured was pitched up. Hence, a lot of people know it at that tempo, because it is otherwise impossible to obtain!","brand":"Mr Bongo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46344408825939,"sku":"2761066X","price":17.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0732\/1937\/5187\/files\/4468982.jpg?v=1789650710","url":"https:\/\/www.deepdiscount.com\/products\/lotus-72-d-5024017003194","provider":"Deep Discount","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
