Background notes
Archive material and source history
João César and Fernando Amaral began performing together in the 1970s, playing folk music in small venues. Their sound drew from traditional Portuguese guitar styles and Brazilian bossa nova, with lyrics that leaned toward the introspective.
They released several albums between 1976 and 1983, including 'João César & Fernando,' 'Boca do Povo,' and 'A Estrada.' Their 1981 album 'Se É Amor Não Sei' featured the song of the same name, which became their best-known work.
Their performances and lyrics sometimes met with resistance from more conservative listeners, but they maintained a following drawn to their particular approach. Their recordings have been played on radio and covered by other artists since.
