marcos valle: garra

Garra was originally released in 1971 and brought us the rare groove classic 'Wanda Vidal,' heralded by UK, European, and Japanese music fans years after the disc's initial release. Amidst an intoxicating mix of instruments, vocals, and orchestration, it's a deep cut on an event deeper document. Any way you spin it, we at Light in the Attic are extremely proud to present Garra as part of our four-album Marcos Valle reissue campaign. Consisting of an ambitious string of early 1970s landmark studio sessions (sympathetic in spirit with Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye's game changing work from the same era), Garra 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. Fans new and old will finally have easy breezy access to these once hard-to-find Brazilian classics. Tackling topics like Presidential corruption, rampant consumerism, and the black power movement, Garra is a welcome addition to any South American friendly record collection and sits proudly with the best of Brazil. File after Os Mutantes, but before Caetano Veloso.
