Marcos Valle: Previsao Do Tempo (180g) LP
Highly sought out 70’s period from Brazilian songwriter extraordinaire. Though originally making the scene as a traditional Bossa Nova performer / songwriter, starting in the early 70’s Valle experimented with new sounds finding influence in American rock, soul, and folk. Light In The Attic, known for their expansive catalog of long lost treasures, curated in a four part series hand picking from Valle’s vaults what are deemed to be the most adventurous in his recordings. Combining new studio techniques with one of Brazil’s funkiest outfits, Azimuth (soon to be Azymuth) as his backing group Previsao Do Tempo walks the line of psychedelic, funky, and swinging. The album features extensive liner notes by San Francisco-based writer Allen Thayer (Wax Poetics) with exclusive interview content and song-by-song breakdown from Marcos himself. Comes housed in gatefold, 180-gram wax LP with original art expanded on a gatefold old-school “tip-on” jacket. Recommended.
