Acústico MTV is a live album by singer-songwriter Roberto Carlos, released on October 3, 2001, through Sony Music Brazil, produced by MTV Brasil.[2][3][4] It features some of the singer's hits acoustic versions.[5][6][7]

Background

[edit]

Context

[edit]

The show brings together some of the singer's hits in acoustic versions. For contractual reasons, there was a dispute between TV Globo and MTV about the show being shown on the cable TV network.[8][9] The singer has an exclusive contract with the broadcaster in Rio de Janeiro, where Roberto cannot perform on other television stations.[10][11] For contractual reasons, the show was never shown on MTV or on Brazilian television.[8]

Recording

[edit]

The program was recorded in the Jacarepaguá, neighborhood of Rio de Janeiro, over two days and featured VJ's Luiz Thunderbird [pt], Marina Person and Didi Wagner.[12][13] A music video for Todos Estão Surdos was produced without images of the concert, something unheard of in the show's history.[12] For the same reasons, Globo re-filmed a show similar to Acústico MTV in its studios and presented it as Roberto's end-of-year special.[14] The album, which was an absolute sales success, as was the DVD, was withdrawn from the catalog.[15]

The show features special guest appearances by musicians Milton Guedes [pt] playing harmonica on Parei na Contramão; Samuel Rosa, lead singer and guitarist of the rock band Skank, on guitar on É Proibido Fumar – re-recorded by the group from Minas Gerais on the tribute to Roberto and on the album Calango, in 1994; and Tony Bellotto, guitarist of Titãs, on É Preciso Saber Viver – re-recorded by the band from São Paulo on the album Volume Dois, in 1998.[12][16]
