Marcos Valle: Braziliance!
ByBossa nova completists will welcome the reissue. It is interesting to have instrumental versions of "Samba De Verao" and "Seu Encanto," here retitled "So Nice" and "The Face I Love," and "Dorme Profundo," three standout tracks from Valle's second album, O Compositor E O Cantor (Odeon, 1965). Also included is the original version of the subsequently much covered "Os Grilos," here retitled "Crickets Sing For Anamaria," which Valle did not record with vocals until 1968, when it was included on his on Summer Samba (Verve). The version here has one of Deodato's more nutritious arrangements and was a modest hit when released as a single.
