A Brazilian artist whose songs like 'Um Dia, Um Adeus' became widely known.
For a sense of his range, try 'Um Dia, Um Adeus' from 1980 and the later 'Perto do Céu.'
He started putting out music in the 1970s, and his 1980 album 'Coração Paulista' gave Brazil 'Um Dia, Um Adeus.' Later tracks like 'Perto do Céu' and 'Planeta Água' kept his voice in the mix through shifts toward personal material and MPB styles. Even after a stroke in 2006, he returned to performing, with more than twenty studio albums to his name.
From São Paulo in the 1970s, he worked with musicians like Robson Jorge and Luizão. The 1986 album 'Amanhã' showed a turn toward more personal writing, and he kept recording through the 1990s and 2000s.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
