Published in 1974 by I Dischi dello Zodiaco Records, it is mostly composed of songs released by the band with other older albums (mainly the one called Autores Chilenos), but re-recorded in the Italian studios. The aim of the album was to spread in Europe works of Nueva Canción Chilena artists, like Victor Jara, Violeta Parra, Patricio Manns, Sergio Ortega and Luis Advis.[1][2] Between the new songs of this album, Chile herido is the first song of the band talking directly about the facts of 11 September 1973. One of the most popular anthems of Unidad Popular, ¡El pueblo unido, jamás será vencido!, is also part of the album. Composed by Sergio Ortega, with a text written by Quilapayún, the Inti-Illimani version became one of the most famous Chilean Resistance songs, also used in various protests and demonstrations all around the world.
