attention to the tastefully done up guitar in the song "o bebado e a equilibrista" (Charles Chaplin's "limelight") from the disk - This Woman (1979): Indeed Elis Regina softly turn down her voice a little bit, just to hear the guitar's follow-up of Helio Delmiro. In the seventies, he has consolidated his reputation as a Jazz musician, and was hailed as a genius and recorded an album with Sarah Vaughan in 1979 and finally released his first solo album called "Emotiva" (soulful), in which he plays the acoustic guitar and electric guitar. In the eighties, Helio Delmiro established himself definitively on the international circuit; the list of its partnerships is immense and includes legends of Jazz, and released solo albums frequently. A crisis has loomed for Helio Delmiro, and is no secret that many Jazz musicians dissolve themselves in smoke from barroom tables, alcohol and drugs, then you need to be a monk yourself, to be a Jazz musician and to go to work off of it. Helio Delmiro succumbed, when it reached a critical point and a monk "entered within himself" and converted him to Christianity, with so much fervor that he became evangelical Pastor and put a "foot on the brake" in a very abrupt way, in his career in the late 80's. The return was gradual and painful, for him, in a sense he had a reputation of being "bossy", which added to the fame of proselyte (convert to an individual doctrine, idea or system), which upset many people.In 90's, he returned to the charge, frequently playing abroad. In 2004, a new jolt, a disagreement with his ex-wife on the board of the children, eventually led him to prison, particularly in abject (infamous) conditions, sharing a cell with hardened criminals, then all kinds of Brazilian musicians gave him support, but it is clear that this episode has opened large wounds, which he attend to heal them with his Christian faith. Helio Delmiro is an unanimity among fellow musicians as one of the most lavishly gifted musicians of Brazilian's music history, as he owns a remarkable improvisational skills. His solo appearances seems like classical concerts, whose behavior reflects sober and musical density and immaculate technique. He is a man of fine intelligence ,which of course, he never lets his art or his personal convictions pass without a thorough self-analysis." http://vcfz.blogspot.com.br/2008/09/140-hlio-delmiro-romero-lubambo.htmlSome internet videos by the great guitar master Helio Delmiro:Elis Regina & Helio Delmiro play "O Bebado e a Equilibrista" (Joao Bosco/Aldir Blanc) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mcYCP1nEdUAHelio Delmiro plays "Compassos" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QU3o1G-xTtMHelio Delmiro plays "Autumn Leaves" (Joseph Kosma/Jacques Prevert)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQaD-CZ_RoEHelio sings! and plays "Ilusao a Toa" (Johnny Alf)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_TIw9w97NoSarah Vaughan & Helio Delmiro play "A Little Tear" (Tom Jobim)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Qos3vYyHbsHelio Delmiro & Nana Caymmi play "Insensatez" (Tom Jobim)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=moiP26Yc7TQHelio plays "Waltzin" (Victor Assis Brasil)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUglOYh3B94Jane Mara & Helio Delmiro sing! and play "Estrada do Sol" (Tom Jobim)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cxnrKTEe2RQ&feature=relatedJane Mara & Helio Delmiro play "Desde que o samba e samba" (Caetano Veloso)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HbFY61LpTqYJane Mara & Helio Delmiro play "O Barquinho" (Roberto Menescal)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2h60XWDE_xA&feature=relmfuLiz Rosa & Helio Delmiro play "Dindi" (Tom Jobim)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSMMd4S-5CM&feature=relatedHelio plays "Beijo Partido" (Toninho Horta)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2Mkdya3MngHelio Delmiro plays "My Favorite Things" (Richard Rodgers/Oscar Hammerstein)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZwL-mRu-flY&feature=relatedHelio
