This disc consists of two major parts: a documentary by Miguel Vallecillo (51 minutes), consisting of songs from Paris concerts and an extended interview with Camarón; and a complementary programme (35 minutes) of other songs from the same concert series. Extras include a video clip of "Como el agua" (5 minutes), and a gallery of photographs.
A recording of just over fifty minutes of singing José Monje Cruz, then a child under 17 years in the tape of Juan Vargas. The first four songs on the album were recorded outdoors, at the door of the Venta de Vargas. The sound is clear and captures, without echoes, nuances of voice and guitar Shrimp. The second part, the topics of 6 to 10, belong to a party in an interior room of la Venta.

With the death from lung cancer of Camarón de la Isla (born José Monge Cruz) on July 2, 1992, flamenco lost one of its greatest vocalists. The son of a basket-maker, de la Isla revolutionalized the flamenco tradition with his contemporary-minded approach. His debut 1969 album, Con la Colaboracion Especial de Paco de Lucia, recorded with the accompaniment of virtuosic guitarist Paco de Lucia, remains one of flamenco's classic recordings. Although he retired from touring in 1979, de la Isla continued to produce groundbreaking albums.

The first 17 of them were made in recording studios by Camaron from 1969 to 1992 while he was alive. "A generally calmer atmosphere can be noticed in this album". The second album of Camaron de la Isla, with the special collaboration of Paco de Lucia, was released at the start of the new decade. The graphic design of the first album was maintained, with photos of both of them and similar headings, but in this one Perez de Leуn went even further and placed the pair face to face in a position similar to the Mountain of Olives, complete with cross and an apocalyptic horizon in red tones. The yellowed faces of the performers made them seem as if they had just suffered an attack of severe hepatitis. Ole'! Leуn.

Paco de Lucia , for the first time, does not appear in the picture showing us Camarуnn, now in the pose of a "star".

The first 17 of them were made in recording studios by Camaron from 1969 to 1992 while he was alive. The third LP of Camaron and Paco was released in 1971, and featured a cover similar to the previous ones. Perez de Leon positions them in a polychromatic sea landscape (which looks like plastic from afar), dressed in formal suit and tie (among his peers Camaron was the first to introduce the suit and tie). Antonio Sanchez and Paco de Lucia appear as authors in the credits -the latter for his guitar variations.

"The record itself marks a break with the previous ones in that the entertaining kitsch style of the cover disappears, to be replaced by a picture taken by Lamarca". But Jose Monje -who would not integrate with anybody- committed the audacity of challenging the established flamencologists right after they had given him their approval, by daring to present in his next project nothing less than a new style of flamenco «cante»: «La Canastera».
