Damn.

I recognized the name right away because I was a huge Angra fan back when I first discovered power metal 47 is waaaaaay too young.

I own no Angra but like what I've heard. A shame he is no longer with us.

I highly recommend you check out his old material with Brazilian band Viper. Excellent stuff.

I only have one Angra album, and he's not on it.

Well , he only sang in the first 3 . Particularly , I was never that much of an Angra fan , except for the first album (Angel´s Cry) , but his other works are fabulous .

I tend to prefer his work with Viper over Angra.
