FRIDAY MUSIC: The Gipsy Kings, by JD

Music this week from the Gipsy Kings. Can't remember where or when I first heard them, it must have been thirty years ago. Doesn't time fly!

From the Wikipedia entry - 

"The group members of the Gipsy Kings were born in France but their parents were mostly gitanos, Spanish Romani who fled Spain during the 1930s Spanish Civil War. They are known for bringing rumba flamenca, a pop-oriented music distantly derived from traditional flamenco music, to worldwide audiences. The group originally called itself Los Reyes."
