Colombia Legacy Recordings ahs turned the spotlight on two of
Julio Iglesias' calssic albums. Both albums place the velvet-voiced Spanish crooner centrestage, acknowledging his global superstar status that has lasted for over 30 years and placed him the exclusive company of such musical icons as
Elvis, Sinatra and the
Beatles.
TANGOis a sultry gem that was released in 1996 and is sung entirely in Spanish.
1100 BEL AIR PLACEis a mesmerizing 1984 classic that features a trio of scintillating duos with
Diana Ross, Willie Nelson and
The Beach Boys.
Iglesias's story is a fascinating one.A former goalkeeper for the Real Madrid soccer club who finished his law studies at Cambridge University when his football career was cut short in the mid-'60s, Iglesias began singing, writing songs and playing guitar to pass the time while rehabilitating his injuries. In the process he launched a career that has sold over 250 million albums worldwide.
Now, for the first time, TANGOand 1100 BEL AIR PLACE have been brilliantly remastered and upgraded with the inclusion of bonus tracks, for new and loyal fans.
