A Thousand and One Stories of Pericón de Cádiz - Paperback
by John Moore (Translator), Jose Luis Ortiz Nuevo (Author)
Juan Mart nez V lchez, (1901-1980) or "Peric n de C diz," was known as one of the leading exponents of cante in the style of C diz, a veteran of the by then waning fiesta scene, a link to early twentieth century flamenco, and a former featured artist from La Zambra. But most importantly he was known as the epitome of a witty Gaditano story teller. Surely because of this reputation, Jos Luis Ortiz Nuevo lugged his tape recorder to Peric n's Madrid apartment, and, plying his subject with whiskey, proceeded to collect what was to become a classic. The English translation by John Moore is faithful to the original.
José Luis Ortiz Nuevo compiled historical data on the origins of flamenco in his book ¿Se sabe algo? He is an expert on oral history and on flamenco.
