From the four revolutionary stage plays A Excepção e a Regra, Guerras do Alecrim e Manjerona, Zé do Telhado and Barracas Ocupação we find José Afonso writing songs and composing new material - twelve tracks in two albums - for theatre plays included on his albums Enquanto Há Força (1978) and Fura Fura (1979). The themes of oppression, corruption, revolutionary social justice and egalitarian utopia remain ever-relevant in today's world, witnessing the re-mastered re-issues of these classic albums - CD, LP and digital releases mastered by Florian Siller at Soundgarden Hamburg. Another journey of re-discovery, this time in double dose, from the visionary constructs of portuguese popular music that José Afonso offered us and continues to offer us - so that, If there is a comrade awaiting you, do not miss the meeting, be constant.
