"A divina comédia ou ando meio desligado" is the third album by the Brazilian tropicalia/Psychedelic rock band Os Mutantes. The album was originally released in 1970 (see 1970 in music) and reissued in 1999 on Omplatten Records. The title in English means: "The Divine Comedy or I Walk a bit Disconnected". "I walk a bit disconnected" in this sense means "I feel a little spaced out." The second track features the band humorously imitating Californian accents. The album as a whole is characterized by an interesting mix of psychedelic and religious imagery, and is considered by many to be some of the group's finest musical work.It's also the first album by the band to break away from the Tropicalia aesthetic, and move towards more of a pure rock sound. Except for a tongue-in-cheek version of the ballad "Chão de Estrelas", the record shows no Brazilian music influences whatsoever. This shift in direction, actually a return to their roots, is probably because the main Tropicalistas Caetano Veloso and Gilberto Gil were sent to exile in England by the Brazilian military dictatorship. The album cover reflects a similar illustration by Gustav Doré from the "Divine Comedy".
