DESCRIPTION
Released in 1971, Garra is one of Marcos Valle’s most celebrated albums, blending Brazilian popular music (MPB) with elements of funk, soul, and psychedelia. Known for its lush arrangements and socially conscious lyrics, the album captures a transformative period in Brazil's cultural and political landscape. Valle’s smooth vocals, combined with his masterful songwriting and the iconic orchestral backing of Eumir Deodato, create a rich sonic tapestry that is both mellow and provocative. Tracks like "Estrelar" showcase his knack for infectious grooves, while songs like "Garra" explore deeper emotional and political themes, marking Garra as a pivotal work in Valle’s discography and in Brazilian music history.
