QUARTETO 1111 ( ANTOLOGIA ) EXTREMELY HYPER RARE PORTUGAL AND VERY LIMITED EDITION LP ...( MADE IN PORTUGAL ) THIS IS A ORIGINAL AND HYPER RARE LP '' NEVER SEE BEFORE ON E-BAY '' ( EMI VALENTIM DE CARVALHO PORTUGAL RECORDS ) LEGENDARY PORTUGUESE PROGRESSIVE \ SHYMPHONIC ROCK LP...

Quarteto 1111 was the first symphonic rock band in Portugal. Since 1968-69 they got media attention through a hit single, "El Rei D. Sebastião", actually with lyrics about the theme of the lost Portuguese king, who supposedly died in the fields of Morocco during the battle of Alcacer-Kibir. Once the king lost, also the Portuguese kingdom lost his independence to Spain. All the myths related with the return of King Sebastião - a quite anchored portuguese myth - were fairly treated in this rather poetic song. The harpsichord made its first appearance in rock portuguese music. As far as I can remember, a single with the English version of the song was published in Great Britain. The band leader was José Cid, composer and keyboard player as well as lead singer. The rest of the band had a classic formation influenced by the usual Beatles line-up, but with a sound and song structure that reminds the early Moody Blues

The following album continued in the same vein, combining melodic songs with newly progressive instruments, namely the Mellotron. Later on the band evolved to a rather common -and unintersting- late 70's pop sound. In 1978 José Cid did publish a "progressive" record, entitled 10.000 anos depois entre Vénus e Marte
