This review is from: Great Masters of Flamenco, Vol. 15 (Audio CD)

Not only was Camarón certainly the greatest flamenco singer of the last fifty years, his accompanists were two of the greatest guitarists -- Paco de Lucía and Tomatito.

This is probably the best single-disc anthology of his career, and includes:

2 tracks from Cada vez que nos miramos (1970)
3 tracks from Son tus ojos dos estrellas (1971)
5 tracks from Caminito de Totana (1973)
2 tracks from Arte y Majestad (1975)
2 tracks from Rosa María (1976)
3 tracks from La leyenda del tiempo (1979)
2 tracks from Como el agua (1981)

The total time is 69'44".
