QUEEN OF THE GYPSIES—One of the all-time greatest flamenco recordings. The only album that brings the listener the full excitement of
Carmen's
dance. Sabicas is also at his best.
FLAMENCO—A continuation of the above, with more focus on singing and the guitar of
Sabicas. Carmen's versions of
colombianas and garrotin became models for the future.
FURIA! AMAYA—The last recording by Carmen Amaya, with the guitar of Juan Maya
"Marote". Only a few years before her death, Carmen could still deliver in such
dances as bulerías, romeras, and la caña.
FLAMENCAN SONGS AND DANCES—The original recordings made by Carmen and her family when they first arrived in New York in 1941. Carmen in her youth, with the very gypsy guitars of her father (El Chino) and brother (Paco
Amaya).
CARMEN AMAYA—Some examples of Carmen's very early cante (zambra, fandangos por soleá
and bulerías) made before she left Spain. |
