Synopsis

When José Monje Cruz was born, the son of a basket-maker and a blacksmith, few could have imagined that the blond gypsy would become the greatest Spanish musical icon of the 20th century. Because Camarón, as he was nicknamed, renewed and amplified flamenco music from the island of his native San Fernando until it reached half the world and then the entire world.

In this beautiful illustrated biography, the young Camarón appears at the Venta de Vargas, already dazzling figures of the stature of Niña de los Peines or Don Antonio Mairena. Then comes the leap to the tablaos of Madrid, where he acquires a reputation as a bohemian and rebel, and also his years with Paco de Lucía and Tomatito, as well as the legendary recording of the album La leyenda del tiempo , a touchstone of modern flamenco. Then comes the avalanche of the eighties (and its chiaroscuros), the consecration in international festivals and the premature end of his life at the age of 41.
