Marcos Valle & Tamba Trio - Samba Demais + Bonus Tracks

Marcos Valle's debut album, Samba Demais, marked his arrival as a standout talent in Brazilian music during the 1960s and ‘70s. Known for his smooth vocal style and songwriting skills (often collaborating with his brother Paulo Sérgio), Valle blended his original compositions with Brazilian standards like Jobim’s “Vivo Sonhando” and “Ela é Carioca.” Supported by the Tamba Trio, the album radiates a relaxed, breezy vibe, with Valle savoring the lyrics in both his originals like "Amor de Nada" and "Sonho de Maria" and his covers. While his songwriting prowess would grow by 1965, Samba Demais showcases Valle’s already impressive performance abilities and hints at his future influence in Brazilian music.
