Marcos Valle – Marcos Valle

A sun-soaked, neon-lit Brazilian boogie masterpiece returns. Mr Bongo proudly reissues Marcos Valle’s iconic 1983 self-titled album - a flawless fusion of soul, funk, MPB, and AOR that continues to inspire DJs and collectors worldwide.

At the heart of this record is the eternal dancefloor gem “Estrelar”, co-written with Motown royalty Leon Ware, and a cult classic across continents. Produced by the legendary Lincoln Olivetti and Marcos’ brother Paulo Sérgio Valle, the album beams with the luxurious grooves of 80s Rio - equal parts California cool and Copacabana swagger. Featuring a heavyweight cast including Rosana, Serginho Trombone, Robson Jorge, and Oberdan Magalhães, every track drips with vintage sophistication.

From the Balearic shimmer of “Fogo Do Sol” to sleek MPB-pop hybrids, this is both home listening gold and a DJ’s secret weapon. Mastered from the original tapes, the Mr Bongo reissue gets the deluxe treatment with a half-speed master by Miles Showell at Abbey Road, enhancing every layer of warmth and rhythmic nuance.
