José Afonso, often referred to as Zeca Afonso, was one of the most influential folk and political musicians in Portuguese history. Protest-poetry and songs about solidarity also on this album. Political criticism delivered on groovy vibes. My favorite tune is called COMO SE FAZ UM CANALHA what could be translated with “How to become a scoundrel”. Cathy scatting vocals and a well measured insert of Cuica, the Brazilian percussion instrument that sounds like a monkey.
