THE Young guard Complete, this Friday 22 August, at 60 years old. The date is a reference to the debut of Young guard programAttraction of the TV record broadcast between 1965 and 1968 and consecrated the trio of presenters Roberto Carlos, Erasmus Carlos (1941-2022) e Wanderléa.

The program, broadcast on Sunday afternoon of the record, was designed to occupy the range of time before dedicating to football: the station lost the transmission rights at that moment.

Young guard emerged as the youth program and faced two other musical attractions produced by the station, The thin bossapresented by Elis Regina and Jair Rodrigues and the Bosscommanded by Elizeth Cardoso. Young guardIn a short time, he became the public leader.

The sound and purpose of the movement, however, conquered the singer Maria Betânia, who attracted the attention of Caetano Veloso and recommended to hear Roberto Carlos. Caetano has already said that the young guard, aesthetic and musically, has been an important inspiration for Tropicália, one of the most contested aspects of Brazilian music and that caused the arrest and exile of Caetano and Gil during the military dictatorship.

In the text published in Literary supplement From Estadão In November 1967, the poet Augusto de Campos this influence highlighted. “Caetano Veloso and Gilberto Gil, with Joy, joy AND Sunday in the parkThey proposed, the protection, to swallow what is new in these mass movements of youth and incorporate the results of modern popular music in their research field and therefore abdicate the formal hypotheses of their compositions which are clearly based on the north -eastern music roots. “

The fact is that at the time the owner of the television record, Paulinho Machado de Carvalho, took Ronnie with a high salary to prevent him from going to TV Excelsior. The singer won the program Ronnie Von’s little worldAnother success with the young people of the time.
