What amazing word and what a wonderful album: Sabadabada, the 1965 Erlon Chaves LP.Sadabadaba is also a very common word that identifies one of the best websites dedicated to Bossa Nova, http://www.sabadabada.com/.
zecalouro found at The Writings of Jose Domingos Rafaelli a great Sadabadaba review, as follow:
The late maestro, pianist, composer and arranger Erlon Chaves led a medium big band with some of the best Brazilian musicians with superb results. The arrangements have a big amount of swing and the soloists (among them Raul de Souza, Hector Costita, Kuntz Wagner, Papudinho and Chaves himself) put their hearts off on this record. The title track, an original Chaves composition, in the Tadd Dameron vein, is one [of the most] lyrical and beautiful melodies ever written in Brazil. Recorded in 1964.

Track No.1 seems to be corrupted.
Anonymous friend.
I will get around to this.
Is anyone experiencing the same situation with track 01? Please let me know.

Hello Zecalouro,
Yes, track 01 does not work. By the way, the link to the sabadabada.com site has the "b's" and "d's" in wrong positions (sadabadaba).
Can we blame the cachaça for this mistakes? ;-)
Cumprimentos.
Erlon Chaves me lembra do programa Flávio Cavalcanti, Um Instante Maestro! Que Saudades!
Hello Zamuro,
That was not Cachaça. :-)
Just a computer mistake from a green lazy bird.
Take Care!
