marcos valle: s/t

Marcos Valle was originally released in 1970 and not only features a seductive cover image of Marcos reading the local papers with a bottle of liquor nearby, but a dynamic musical backing from some of Brazil's most gifted players. Hip-hop fans may even recognize the opening horn blasts of 'Ele E Ela,' which were sampled to great effect on Jay-Z's 'Thank You.' Any way you spin it, we at Light in the Attic are extremely proud to present Marcos Valle as part of our four-album Marcos Valle reissue campaign.... 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." CD version includes a rare bonus track.
