In a few days, the fortieth anniversary of the last civic-military coup in Argentina will be commemorated. March 24, 1976. From that day until December 1983, It was one of the darkest chapters in the history of Latin America. The tragic sum of the de facto governments of that era brought thirty thousand disappeared persons, More than 500 babies stolen from their families, a total absence of democratic rights, and an economy devastated to favor the interests of a few. and a stupid international war that finished plunging the State into its misery. Some professional deniers insist on erasing these figures from official records, while others justify the facts by resorting to to the fallacy of the two demons theory, where the victims are practically included on the list of guilty parties.«They must have done something.«"The cynics say.".
Many musical themes emerged from this regrettable piece of history, created during the last four decades. We have selected 8 recordings of different sound types To pay tribute to those who always worked to put the truth first and prevent the facts from being obscured by the slander of state terrorists. This set of songs serves as a small homage to the Mothers and Grandmothers of Plaza de Mayo., for their struggle throughout all these years.
The track listing for this compilation is as follows:
–Alice in Wonderland song: Serú Giran
–Useless song: Attaque 77
–The march of anger: Peter and Paul
–Lullaby for a ruler: Maria Elena Walsh
–The memory: León Gieco
–I thought they were blind people: The Twist
–Repression: The Rapists
–Every prisoner is a political prisoner.: Patricio Rey y sus Redonditos de Ricota
