He also played music with American people, and received some of the most important awards from Spain. Finally, in 2012 he won his second Latin Grammy Award for the best flamenco recording. 

• Opinion:

I thought it would be interesting to know a little bit more about his life, I didn't know a lot about him, and today, his death has been a revolution on the Internet today, and I decided to write about it. It has to be a hard situation for his family, and, Malú, who was her niece, she's been always next to him and singing together, I've seen on the Internet she's really sad about this fact.

• Words I have learnt:

Genres: gèneres (catalan)
