Cid, José
Entry updated 3 June 2024. Tagged: Music, People.
(1942- ) Portuguese singer, composer and keyboardist who created several progressive and symphonic rock records in the 1970s, including the concept album 10.000 Anos Depois Entre Vénus e Marte ["10,000 Years Later Between Venus and Mars"] (1979), about a man and a woman travelling to Earth 10,000 years in the Far Future to repopulate the destroyed planet (see Adam and Eve). It aims for a grandeur that is not matched by the music's fairly lightweight take on the Moody Blues or Pink Floyd end of the prog spectrum. [CWa]
