Marcos Valle Samba '68 SPEAKERS CORNER TEST PRESSING Kevin Gray Mastered

Description: Please see all my AUDIOPHILE listings, I combine ship. Remastered by Kevin GrayPressed at PallasOne of 30 total test pressings “Samba ’68“, the only album released on the Verve label by prolific Brazilian singer Marcos Valle. In 1968, Vallewas commissioned by Verve to record his Brazilian hits in English in order to capitalize on the then-huge Getz-Gilberto-Jobim-Mendes-Astrud market. Marcos’ rapid and stunning artistic growth is apparent on this brilliant Bossa Nova album. Fans of Sérgio Mendes and Astrud Gilberto (both of whom recorded tons of Valle tunes) will enjoy it immensely, for “Samba ’68” is definitely one of the ultimate “loungy” records.Marcos Valle was the Renaissance man of Brazilian pop, as singer, songwriter and producer who straddled the country’s music world from the early days of the Bossa Nova craze well into the fusion-soaked sound of ‘80s Brazilian popular music. Though his reputation in America never quite compared to contemporaries like Caetano Veloso, Milton Nascimento, Gilberto Gil, or even Tom Zé, Valle is one of the most important and popular performers in the history of Brazilian pop.180 gram vinyl test pressing (pressing plant PALLAS in Germany), white label "only for promotion", comes in generic white sleeve and a printed description (A4) of the record in English and German with a small picture of the cover.Matrix / Runout: V6-5053-A KPG@ATMMatrix / Runout: V6-5053-B KPG@ATM A1The Answer2:39A2Crickets Sing For Anamaria2:08A3So Nice (Summer Samba)2:26A4Chup Chup, I Got Away2:14A5If You Went Away2:51A6Pepino Beach1:50B1She Told Me, She Told Me2:41B2It's Time To Sing2:50B3Batucada1:58B4The Face I Love1:56B5Safely In Your Arms3:06
