NEW RELEASES FROM MARCOS VALLE, SABRINA MALHEIROS & SEU JORGE

MARCOS VALLE – VALLE TUDO – DISCOGRAFICA DE 1963 A 1974 (11-CD BOX SET)
If you are into the music of Marcos Valle then you are in for a fantastic treat! Valle Tudo – Discografica De 1963 A 1974 features some of the most amazing music ever recorded. Every record in this massive package is a delight – from the early bossa sides, to the more complicated singer/songwriter material, to Valle's incredibly rich experiments with baroque pop! Valle is certainly one of the greatest Brazilian artists to ever enter a recording studio. Not only does the set include 10 rare albums, but each CD comes with bonus tracks – plus the whole thing also features a previously unreleased full album from 1966. Albums include Samba Demais, O Compositor E O Cantor, Braziliance, Viola Enluarada, Mustang Cor De Sangue, Marcos Valle (1970), Garra, Vento Sul, Previsao Do Tempo, and Marcos Valle (1974) – plus The Lost Sessions from 1966.  

SEU JORGE – PARA CHURRASCO VOL. 1
Sunny, energetic sounds from Seu Jorge – the first in a what will be series of Musicas Para Churrasco releases, which loosely translates, we reckon, as music to bring to a barbecue – lightly funky Brazilian soul with that gritty, charismatic, instantly identifiable voice! What's so great about this set to us, is that it's sort of set up by Seu Jorge himself as simple, fun, everyday, don't take it so seriously kinda grooves – but it's too damn good for that. The arrangements are fairly uptempo and summer-y, generally in 10 piece setting with heavy rhythms, killer percussion, guitar, brass, keys and an all around effervescent style – but this ain't no tossed off effort! On par with his best recent work. Includes "A Doida", "Meu Parceiro", "Veia", "Ole, Ole", "Japonesa", "Quem Nao Quer Sou Eu", "Vizinha", "Amiga Da Minha.”


SABRINA MALHEIROS - DREAMING
Always-lovely work from Sabrina Malheiros – serving up a sublime blend of Brazilian roots and soulful overtones – a style that's easily made her one of the best artists on the Far Out label over the years! Sabrina's got a family lineage that traces back to Azymuth – and the music here has the similar blend of fusion instrumentation, earthy Brazilian percussion, and soaring American soul that you'll find in the best classics by that group – all with the added special spark that comes from her sweet vocals too! Production and arrangements are by Daniel Venom Maunick, who brings in a slight dose of Incognito soul too – really making for a record that's quite possibly the best we've heard from Sabrina so far – and that's saying a heck of a lot. Titles include "Lirio De Venus", "Bobeira", "Opara", "Candeia", "Fragil", "Can't Hide Love", "Primeira", and "Paranoia".
