Review by Roger Coathup

Grandes Êxitos by José Cid is a compilation album that features some of the most beloved tracks from the Portuguese singer and composer's extensive career. The album spans several decades and showcases Cid's versatility as an artist, with songs ranging from rock to ballads to folk.

The album opens with the energetic and catchy "A Cabana Junto À Praia," which sets the tone for the rest of the compilation. Other highlights include the melancholic "20 Anos," the upbeat "Ontem, Hoje e Amanhã," and the romantic ballad "Na Cabana Junto À Praia."

Cid's distinctive voice and musical style are evident throughout the album, and his talent as a songwriter is on full display. The production is polished and modern, while still retaining the charm and authenticity of Cid's original recordings.
