Marcos Valle leaves behind him the psychedelic rock and to fully immerse into the Jazz Funk style including Samba. Considered as his best album after the iconic "Garra", deeply influenced by the Herbie Hancock's sound from the "Headhunter" era, "Previsão Do Tempo" includes various latin flavours evolving amid the electronic moods where Rhodes and moog synthesizer have a key role. The album introduces his new backing band, the brazilian jazz funk combo "Azymuth" featuring José Roberto Bertrami (keys), Alex Malheiros (eb) and Ivan Conti (ds), all supported by the maestro arrangers Joao Donato, Eumir Deodato, and the Brazilian "Rudy Van Gelder" sound engineer Toninho Barbosa. Titles include the samba-soul "Flamengo Até Morrer" feat. O Terço, the jazz funk nuggets "Nem Paletó, Nem Gravata", "Mentira" & "Não Tem Nada Não".
