José Manuel Cerqueira Afonso dos Santos, better known as José Afonso or Zeca Afonso, was born on August 2, 1929 in Aveiro and became one of the most influential figures of the Portuguese 20th century. Poet, singer and composer of countless works known to all, he gave lyrics, voice and melody to "Grândola, Vila Morena", a song used by the Armed Forces Movement as the starting signal for the Revolution of April 25, 1974.
