At seventeen he joined a rock group called "The Sputnicks" and was noticed by composer Carlos Imperial, which launches him on a radio show like Elvis Presley impersonator. In 1959 he released his first 45 laps, João and Maria / Fora do Tom always with the help of Carlos Imperial, became his producer, and in 1961 he released his first album Louco por Você, while the first youth movement born in Brazil rock music, called Jovem Guarda, which a few years later also became a successful television program. A lead will be called just Roberto Carlos, along with Erasmo Carlos and Wanderléa singer.

In those years, Roberto also participated in numerous music festivals, and conquest in a few years a huge celebrity, selling millions of records in his country. In 1967 recorded the Italian version of his successful 45 laps, the woman of a friend of mine, which gets good visibility on our record market and the invitation to participate in next year's Sanremo Festival. Sing in pairs with Blanche Dubois song for you, getting the first prize.

The song I love you love you love you was inserted in the wake of the successful collection, published by CGD in 1969.


The Italian production of Roberto Carlos was very rich until the mid-eighties: not only did he personally followed and recorded the Italian versions of his biggest hits, but also has given some of them the interpretation of singers such as Ornella Vanoni, ( the event, details), Mortal Coil (Stubborn I) and Raffaella Carra (in love), these last two songs on texts by Christian Malgioglio.

He also starred in one of the musicals that had much success in the sixties, Chimera together with Gianni Morandi.

At home meanwhile, continues its tremendous success: 1963-1999 Roberto continued to release an album a year (and to bring out a version in Spanish for Spanish-speaking countries) by running it regularly in the television special year-end of Rede Globo. The tradition is interrupted with the death from cancer of his third wife Maria Rita, and since then the production of new unpublished clears consistently, although they continue to be published collections, box sets and DVDs of successes.
