Other artists, such as the Beatles, Led Zeppelin and Alice Cooper kept joining his main influences.

At the age of eleven, he had classes of classic guitar and harmony with Alexandre ("Maranhão"), a friend of José Carlos.

His first compositions were all based on poems.

Most of them were long, showing his appreciation for long songs.
