Biography[edit]
Like many Filipino singers in the 1970s, Basil S. Valdez started on a solo career
as a folk singer. In 1972, he joined the Circus Band[1][2] and soon after it
disbanded, he released his first solo album entitled Ngayon at Kailanman. While in
the Circus Band, he met Ryan Cayabyab, who was then part of another band. When
Valdez was preparing tracks for the album Ngayon at Kailanman, he asked Cayabyab to
collaborate with and write a few songs for him, which the composer did. Cayabyab
then became Valdez's musical director for 27 years. In the 80's, Valdez re-invented
himself as a singer of movie theme songs. Among the most memorable were "Paano Ba
Ang Mangarap," "Muling Buksan Ang Puso" and "Paraisong Parisukat."

A circumstance which sidelined his singing career occurred in 1990, when he found
himself as a "healer".[1] Valdez then sought the guidance of his Jesuit friends.
They explained to him that he has gift of healing.
