Link profile: Camarón de la Isla


Category: Start / Culture / Flamenco / Flamenco Singing and Singers
Camarón de la Isla was nicknamed "the Mick Jagger from Cádiz," which in terms of stature is fair enough, but I feel a more fitting comparison is with Jim Morrison. Original name José Monje Cruz, he died tragically in 1992 at the age of 41, after a short, hard lifetime in which he established himself not just as one of the most potent, influential flamenco singers of recent times, but as the voice of the gypsies and other underdogs of Spain. Inexplicably, there is no official website for Camarón, but these pages from Flamenco World very nearly fill that void.
