Acústico MTV is a live album by singer-songwriter Roberto Carlos, released on 3 October 2001 through Sony Music Brazil, produced by MTV Brasil.[1][2][3] It features some of the singer's hits acoustic versions.[4][5][6]
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.[7][8] The singer has an exclusive contract with the broadcaster in Rio de Janeiro, where Roberto cannot perform on other television stations.[9][10] For contractual reasons, the show was never shown on MTV or on Brazilian television.[7]
Recording
[edit]The program was recorded in the Jacarepaguá, neighborhood of Rio de Janeiro, over two days and featured VJs Luiz Thunderbird, Marina Person and Didi Wagner.[11][12] A music video for Todos Estão Surdos was produced without images of the concert, something unheard of in the show's history.[11] 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presented it as Roberto's end-of-year special.[13] The album, which was an absolute sales success, as was the DVD, was withdrawn from the catalog.[14]
The show features special guest appearances by musicians Milton Guedes 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.[11][15]
Commercial performance
[edit]The album sold 1.6 million records in the country.[16] According to figures from Pro-Música Brasil, the DVD and CD have achieved 'diamond' sales certification.[17]

[edit]All tracks are written by Roberto Carlos and Erasmo Carlos, except where indicated.
