Venceremos


Working Week were formed in 1983, and in 1984 they released the EP "Venceremos (We Will Win)" (Paladin/Virgin), with Robert Wyatt guesting. The song is a tribute to Victor Jara.
And it´s a great song, isn´t it? I might just start a new round with The Classic!

This version, with Robert Wyatt singing, did not make it to the first Working Week album, but hey, at least it got a video!
