José Albano Cid de Ferreira Tavares (born 4 February 1942) is a Portuguese singer, composer and record producer. Internationally, Cid is best known for his 1978 progressive rock album 10,000 Anos Depois Entre Vénus e Marte and for representing Portugal at the Eurovision Song Contest 1980 with the song "Um grande, grande amor".

With a career spanning more than 60 years, Cid has been awarded 25 Silver, eight Gold and three Platinum records in Portugal. In 2019, Cid received a Latin Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, becoming the second Portuguese singer, after Carlos do Carmo, to receive the honour.

Early life
Cid was born in 1942 in Chamusca, son of Francisco Albano Coutinho Ferreira and Fernanda Tavares Salter Cid Ferreira Gameiro. At age 6, he moved with his family to the municipality of Anadia. His professional career began when he started a covers band called Os Babies ("The Babies"), in 1956. 

In 1960, Cid began Law School at the University of Coimbra (FDUC). During his time in Coimbra, he created the musical group Conjunto Orfeão with José Niza, Proença de Carvalho and Rui Ressurreição. Cid subsequently joined the bands Trio Los Dos and Os Claves.

In 1965, Cid dropped out of school, without having completed his first year, and left for Lisbon to attend the National Institute of Physical Education (INEF). One of his colleagues at INEF was the brother of Michel, a member of the band Conjunto Mistério. After an audition, he was invited to join the group, later renamed Quarteto 1111. 

Cid did not graduate from INEF either, because he was called to serve as an officer in the Portuguese Air Force. At the air base of Ota, he was a gym teacher from 1968 to 1972. His days were spent teaching in the mornings, and rehearsing during the afternoons, playing music in a garage. On the weekends, he performed with Quarteto 1111.

Quarteto 1111

José Cid co-founded Quarteto 1111, the first band to take a new approach to pop-rock music in Portugal, with a modern line-up and instrumentation.

Quarteto 1111 was the first symphonic rock band in Portugal. Between 1968 and 1969 they received media attention from a hit single, "El Rei D. Sebastião", a song about the loss of the Portuguese king D. Sebastião, who supposedly died in the fields of Morocco during the battle of Alcazarquivir (a loss that would eventually lead to Portugal losing its independence from Spain). All the myths related with the return of King Sebastian – a quite anchored Portuguese myth – were fairly treated in this song. The harpsichord made its first appearance in Portuguese rock music. A single with the English version of the song was released in Great Britain. José Cid was the band leader, composer, keyboard and 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 reminiscent of The Moody Blues. The following album continued in the same vein, combining melodic songs with new "progressive" instruments, namely the Mellotron. Later on the band evolved to the late 1970s pop sound.

Progressive rock

Cid explored symphonic rock with Cantamos Pessoas Vivas (1974), Vida – Sons do Quotidiano (1976) and 10,000 Anos Depois Entre Venus E Marte (1978). Most of the songs, influenced by a sort of mix combining The Moody Blues and Pink Floyd psychedelia, were composed by Cid, some of them with the help of guitar player Mike Sergeant and drummer Ramon Galarza. Another (unfinished) project from this lineup, Vozes do Além, explored the "Life after Death / Reincarnation" theme. Featured in the record are a poem by Natália Correia ("Creio") and two from Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen ("Quando" and "Um Dia"). Presently, work on this album has resumed, with the original lineup and the addition of younger musicians.

OTI Festival 
In 1979 José Cid was selected by RTP to represent Portugal in the eighth edition of the OTI Festival, which was held in Caracas, Venezuela. He competed with the song "Na cabana junto à praia" (In a little house next to the beach), which was well received in the festival to the point that he managed to get the third place with 32 points.

In 1981, one year after his participation in the Eurovision Song Contest, he was again selected by the Portuguese broadcaster to compete in the tenth edition of the OTI Festival, which was held in Mexico City. This time he was not as successful as in his previous attempt in the Latin-American song contest and he got the tenth place scoring 14 points.

Eurovision
The pop inclinations of José Cid led him to create, during the first half of the 1970s, a 4 piece vocal pop group (Green Windows) and to participate in the 1974 Festival da Canção with Imagens and No Dia Em Que O Rei Fez Anos.  He also participated in the Eurovision Song Contest 1980 with the song Um grande, grande amor.

Present day

José Cid himself made a career as a songwriter and singer, and remains a popular and active musician in Portugal.

His latest album "Menino Prodígio", released in 2015, was awarded the Pedro Osório Award for the best album of the year by the Sociedade Portuguesa de Autores (SPA) (English: Portuguese Society of Authors). 

In 2016, Cid released his first album in Spain. He received a Latin Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2019.

Personal life 
José Cid married Gabriela Carrascalão in 2013. Carrascalão is an East Timorese journalist and artist/painter. Cid and Gabriela live in a farm in Mogofores, municipality of Anadia. 

Cid has one daughter, Ana Sofia Infante Pedroso (born 1964) from his first marriage with Emilia Infante Pedroso. Ana Sofia worked briefly with her father, but they are currently estranged.

José Cid is a liberal monarchist and openly and vigorously defends the Portuguese monarchist cause. In 2022, he said:"I am a monarchist, but I am not a monarchist of this PPM (Monarchist People's Party), mind you. Being a progressive monarchist is simple. It is what Sá Carneiro did not have the courage to assume, although he was married to a Swede, to follow the countries of northern Europe, the least corrupt, the most cultured, the best living countries in the world – and the most boring because they must be full of snow now. We have the best people in the world, the best climate in the world, the best gastronomy in the world, the best shape in the world because we have endured amazing things, from a regicide, two dictatorships, the Salazarist and the Marcelista, and another one very close to a gentleman who won with an absolute majority and who walks around on the loose in Ericeira [reference to António Costa]."

조제 시드(, 본명: 조제 알바누 시드 드 페레이라 타바레스(José Albano Cid de Ferreira Tavares), 1942년 2월 4일 ~ )는 포르투갈의 가수이자 작곡자이다. 그는 유로비전 송 콘테스트 입상곡인 "Um grande, grande amor"와 프로그레시브 록 앨범 《10,000 Anos Depois Entre Venus E Marte》로 알려져 있다. 그는 25개의 실버 레코드, 8개의 골드 레코드, 3개의 플래티넘 레코드를 가진 인기 가수이다.

약력 
조제 시드는 샤무스카(Chamusca) 지방에서 태어났지만 11세 시절에 아나디아(Anadia) 지방으로 이주했다. 그는 카피 밴드인 베이비즈를 1956년에 만들면서 음악경력을 시작했다. 1960년엔 코임브라 대학교 법학과에 입학해서 코임브라 더 콘준투 오르페앙(Coimbra the Conjunto Orfeão)이라는 밴드를 만들기도 했다. 1963년에 그는 결혼해서 다음해에 딸을 낳았다. 그들은 카스카이스에서 살았는데 이후 딸은 성장해서 아버지의 작사가로 활동했다.

조제 시드는 법대에서 제적당해 리스본으로 이주했다. 국립 체육 대학교에 입학한 그는 여전히 음악을 했는데 동생이 있던 밴드인 콘준투 미스테리우(Conjunto Mistério)도 그중 하나였다. 이 밴드는 이후 쿠아르테투 1111(Quarteto 1111)이라는 이름으로 바뀐다. 조제는 학업을 끝마치지 않고 포르투갈 공군에서 병역을 마쳤다. 이런 이유들로 그는 이후 헬스클럽에서 오전에는 체육강사를 하고 오후에는 음악을 하는 식으로 생활했다.

쿠아르테투 1111 (Quarteto 1111) 
쿠아르테투 1111(Quarteto 1111)는 포르투갈에서 심포닉 프로그레시브 록을 시도한 첫번째 밴드이다. 조제 시드는 이 밴드의 공동설립자라고 할 수 있으며 포르투갈 록 역사에서 새로운 팝록을 시도한 중요한 밴드로 만들었다. 싱글 "El Rei D. Sebastião"로 주목을 받았는데 이 곡은 스페인으로부터 독립을 쟁취하려던 왕 포르투갈의 세바스티앙을 노래했다. 하프시코드가 사용된 최초의 포르투갈 록 음악이기도 했다. 영어로 번안되어 영국에서 발매되기도 했는데 조제는 실질적인 밴드의 리더였다. 다른 멤버들은 대체로 비틀즈풍의 구성이었지만 이후 무디 블루스의 영향을 받기도 했다. 그때 내놓은 앨범에서는 멜로트론을 사용하는 등 여러가지로 혁신적인 시도를 했다. 하지만 이후 밴드는 팝 사운드로 돌아간다.

솔로 
조제는 1974년부터 1978년 사이에 프로그레시브 록을 실험했다. 그 중 1978년 작품인 콘셉트 음반 《10,000 Anos Depois Entre Venus E Marte》는 이후 걸작으로 평가되었다. 많은 곡들이 무디 블루스와 핑크 플로이드의 영향권에 있었다. 

그는 그린 윈도우라는 ABBA 스타일의 팝 밴드와 함께 1974년에는 페스티발 다 칸상(Festival da Canção)에서 "Imagens and No Dia Em Que O Rei Fez Anos"라는 노래로 참가했고 1980년에는 유로비전 송 콘테스트에 "Um grande, grande amor"라는 노래로 참가했다.
