MARCOS VALLE

PREVISAO DO TEMPO

(BR. ODEON, SMOFB-3788, 1973)

MEGA RARE ORIGINAL BRAZILIAN PRESSING of MPB legend Marcos Valle's 1973 masterpiece Previsao Do Tempo! I am very proud to be offering one of these up for sale - I doubt I will find another, especially in the condition this is in! Marcos Valle was very popular in Brazil in the 60s but his early 70s albums, as great as they are, did not sell well at the time. Of course, now they have the recognition they deserve - excellent reissue label Light In The Attic reissued this album last year and since then an interest in his albums has risen a lot!! I have been a fan of Valle for years and this album is one of his best - it is truly flawless, and is definitely one of my favourite Brazilian albums. Since the LITA reissue this album finally has the recognition is deserves - it truly is a masterpiece. Musically, it is as good as it gets - seriously funky, deep grooves, mellow and jazzy - Brazilian music at its best! I must stress that this is NOT A REISSUE - THIS IS A 100% GENUINE FIRST PRESSING FROM 1973 in the laminated sleeve with the impossibly rare lyric sheet (which is pretty much always missing and hardly ever turns up - in fact for years I did not know the insert existed)!! This is an ideal one for any serious collector of Brazilian music - I myself have been collecting Brazilian music for many years and this is definitely one of the more elusive albums from the early 70s - and this is also the best example I have ever seen! I guarantee you will NEVER find another in such nice shape! THIS IS IN DREAM CONDITION AND IS ONE FOR THE ARCHIVE!! You will be not be disappointed! Don't miss out!

ALL BRAZILIAN MUSIC LOVERS:

I also currently have ORIGINAL PRESSINGS of Marcos Valle's Vento Sul and the mail-order edition of Gilberto Gil's 1969 album - be sure to take a look!!

Vinyl is in EX+ condition : in lovely shape, a few light marks which do not sound (very common with Brazilian pressings), looks and sounds great overall - you will not find a nicer example!!

Laminated sleeve is in EX condition : in beautiful shape, spines and edges are great, all laminate is intact, this is an incredibly fragile sleeve and only has very light wear on the front and back - original shop sticker is still on the back - you will not find a better example!!

Lyric insert is in EX condition : in lovely shape, light handling creases, light staining, a little yellowed around the edges but still the best one I have ever seen - you will not find a nicer example!!

Run-out grooves:

SIDE 1 - SBRXLD-12415-R stamped

SIDE 2 - SBRXLD-12416 stamped
