Me La Tienes Controlá / En Espejo En Que Te Miras / El Padre Santo De Roma / Estoy Cumpliendo Condena

Released in 1972 on the Philips label, this EP represents a critical juncture in the evolution of flamenco, capturing the dynamic partnership between singer Camarón de la Isla and guitarist Paco de Lucía. During this era, the duo was actively bridging the gap between traditional flamenco purity and a more innovative, experimental approach that would eventually define the 'Nuevo Flamenco' movement. The tracks feature the raw, emotive cante of Camarón supported by the technical precision and melodic complexity that Paco de Lucía was beginning to introduce to the genre.

The record serves as a testament to the prolific creative output the two artists maintained during their long-standing collaboration in the 1970s. Designed with the modest, functional aesthetic typical of Spanish EP releases of the period, the sleeve focused on the immediate recognition of the two performers. While contemporary critics and purists initially debated the modernization of the traditional forms heard on these recordings, the work is now regarded as essential listening that documented the transformation of flamenco into a globally recognized art form.
