Tudella

Overview

Tudella --- 1969

Gatefold sleeve Only a few copies survived and passed through the, very strict, radar of the dicatorship years in Portugal. The album shows a total black cover which was very unusual to the regular sleeves being released in Portugal, reflecting in its entirely the strong opposition statement João Maria Tudella and Pedro Jordão were making against the established dictator regime. The first song on the record it's a pure reflexion of that same statement: "Fuzilaram Um Homem Num País Distante" (They Shot A Man In A Distant Country/Land"), probably a straight link to the connections Portugal had with the undergoing colonies.
