Biography
Jean Carlo was born on 20 March 1943 in São Paulo. At the age of eight, he got his first musical instrument, an eight-bass accordion, which he learned to play by himself. At the same time, he began studying at Instituto Padre Chico, a boarding school for the blind, in São Paulo - Jean was blind from birth.[4] He was part of the school's choir and band, where he played the euphonium, which is a wind instrument.
In 1964, Jean Carlo participated in the program "Reino da Juventude", presented by Antonio Aguillar, on Record TV, and became known to the great public.
In 1965, Carlo recorded Italian songs and released his first album entitled "Eu Nasci Pra Você", which was a sales success throughout the country, containing, among others, the song Aline (version of the original French). In 1969, his second album was released, titled "Preciso Olhar Pra Você", with the songs "Era Um Garoto Que Como Eu Amava os Beatles e os Rolling Stones" and "Travessia" by Milton Nascimento.
In December 1969, Jean moved to Argentina and began to perform in various cities in that country and in Uruguay, including participating in television programs.
He returned to Brazil in 1971, continuing his career. In 1972, he recorded a compact on the Philips label, with the songs "Tanto Tempo Esperei" and "É So Fácil".
In the 1970s, it became common for Brazilian musicians to record songs in English using a pseudonym. That's what also happened to Jean Carlo. In 1973, for the Top-Tape label, under the pseudonym Michael Davis, he recorded the great success "Another Song".[5] In 1974, under the pseudonym Edward Cliff, for the Central Park label, he recorded a compact with the songs "Country feeling" and "I'll Never Walk Alone Again".
In 1975, as Edward Cliff, on the RCA Victor label, he recorded a double compact with the song "Nights Of September", which became a great success.[6][7] This recording was released in Spanish in South America and in English in North America and Europe. In Brazil, it was released in Spanish and English. The song "Nights Of September" spent 13 weeks at the top of the Italian charts. The recording of "Nights Of September", in English, was re-released several times in Brazil, the last one being in 1999, on the compilation "Hits Again" (Som Livre).
In 1977, still as Edward Cliff, he recorded the song "Summer Love". Jean also recorded singles and songs using the pseudonyms Steve Brandy, Gary Bristol, Michael Davies, Steve Robinson and Marty Rivers. As of 1975, he joined the Catholic religious movement for evangelization, giving lectures and performing - singing and playing the organ - in churches and communities across the country.[8]
In 1996, he recorded ten tracks for the CD As Mais Lindas Canções da Igreja Católica (ASJ).[1] In 1998 he released the CD "Obrigado Senhor" by ASJ, containing the songs "Amazing Grace", "Creio Em Ti" and others. A clip of the song "Olho em Tudo" was produced.
The singer died in Campinas, where he was dealing with neurological problems on 2 July 2013.[9]
