Historia – Whiteblue Marbled Vinyl Edition

Ltd Whiteblue Marbled Vinyl Edition

The Grammy Award-winning Gipsy Kings and their leader / founder Tonino Baliardo broke the mould with their self-titled album back in 1987. It was a time when the US and UK charts were almost completely devoid of non-English language songs, and especially music that was inspired and informed by the rich tapestry of world music from the preceding decades.Subsequent albums such as “Mosaïque” and “Este Mundo” continued their success, leading to 25 million album sales, in excess of 2 billion streams and sold-out shows at prestigious concert halls across the world. Adorning their core flamenco sound with Latin influences, a pop accessibility and touches of reggae and jazz, their cultural impact resulted in them featuring on the soundtracks to “Toy Story 3”, “The Big Lebowski” and “Entourage”.All these years later, Tonino Baliardo and the Gipsy Kings family are still burning bright. Almost forty years since their breakthrough, their story continues – with music as electrifying and life-affirming as ever – with the news that they will release the new album “Historia”.
