Amargura (Jota por la muerte de Jose Antonio) - Jose Antonio Primo de Rivera tribute song

The 20th of November will mark the 86th anniversary of the death of José Antonio Primo de Rivera, who was imprisoned before the start of the civil war, accused of conspiracy and military rebellion against the government of the Second Spanish Republic and sentenced to death and executed during the first months of the war.  His image was revered during the war by the Nationalist faction and, after the establishment of Francoist Spain, he was considered a martyr, his figure being a tool of the Francoist propaganda apparatus. The inscription “José Antonio ¡Presente!“ It can be found in many churches throughout Spain. However, in March 2005, the City Council of Guadalajara removed a memorial to the founder of the Falange under the cover of darkness.  PS: “Jota“, is a traditional song spread in a large part of Spain. Their style varies by region. ▪Lyrics: Y amargura, a la guitarra, échale tristeza al vino, y amargura, a la guitarra. Compañero, nos mataron al mejor hombre de España, al mejor hombre de España. Échale tristeza al vino.
