Sometimes in life we find ourselves in a crossroads of history. Sometimes we don’t even notice there is a crossroads, sometimes it’s so clear and obvious that it scares us.
We feel paralized.
If we take the wrong turn there is no way back without a lot of struggle, suffering and even risk of death.
We know what is the right path, we shout and scream to the crowd moving in the wrong direction,but they seem deaf and blind.

The choice Brazil is facing in this 2018 Presidential Elections are cristal clear:

Democracy or dictatorship.
Civilization or barbarism.
Human rights or death squads.
Civilian government or Military coup.
Freedom of speech or censorship.
Religious freedom or fundamentalism.

It is obvious that the CAS crew has chosen its side in that struggle, but...

When we created the Caipirinha Libre show the whole point was that it would be different and independent from the Caipirinha Appreciation Society. But a couple of weeks ago we just couldn't help sharing a theme in the sibling shows: the imminent danger of Latin America becoming one big communist bloc.

The ins and outs of U.R.S.A.L. (as the new country is to be called) you will understand once you listen to either episode. It was supposed to be the central theme for the the Caipirinha Appreciation Society, but since the CAS is presented live one day before Caipirinha Libre, we were left with a whole lot of excellent songs (many of which suggested by our listeners while we were on air) which we weren't able to fit into the two-hour broadcast. So there you have it: we just had to repeat the same theme to our portuñol listeners the following day.

Once again, we have two shows that are related:

CAS Cafundó was recorded a week after a long chat with Maga Bo at Caipirinha Libre 128.

For the show in Spanish we didn’t have a way to properly set up his gear in the studio, so we’ve just played tracks from some of his projects with his label Kafundó Records while he...
