Belchior
Belchior (Portuguese pronunciation: [bew.kiˈɔɾ], born Antônio Carlos Belchior, October 26, 1946 – April 30, 2017) was a Brazilian singer and composer. He was one of the first MPB singers from the Brazilian northeast to reach mainstream success, in the early 1970s.
His 1976 album Alucinação [English: Hallucination] is considered by many critics to be the single most influential album in the history of MPB, and one of the most important music albums ever published in Brazil. In 2008, Rolling Stone Brasil named Belchior as the 100th greatest artist in Brazilian music history, and subsequently as the 58th biggest voice in Brazilian music history.
