HILDE HELTBERG – HILDE HELTBERG (1982)
Heltberg was a flower decorator and started his career in a talent competition where Stein Ove Berg was the judge. From him she learned a lot about both being an artist, and not least vocal technique. She had many musical role models over the years, but three female artists have always been at the center, namely Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris and Linda Ronstadt. The first band Heltberg played with in the late 70s was called Uncle John's Band. In 1980, she participated in the Norwegian final of Melodi Grand Prix and came last with the song "Maestro". In 1982 she was in the Ole Paus revue Daba daba – Visst vokser det negre i Mjøsa, Kid and in the same year her first solo album was also released on Talent, an LP that was produced by Tore Syvertsen, former bass player in Jumbo among others. The result was a well-produced pop album, although it was perhaps not entirely representative of what Heltberg would later represent. More Blondie than Dollie Parton.
