They explained the evolution of their sound in the 1996 PBS documentary of their lives and music "Tierra Gitana (Gipsy Land)". Young brothers Nicolas, Canut and Paul Reyes accompanied their father, famed flamenco singer Jose Reyes, who started out singing "cante jondo" (deep chant), traditional flamenco with long-running themes of passion, love, death, etc. But they began playing rumba flamenca because "we liked to watch pretty girls dance," said Nicolas.

Latin American beats had been joined with flamenco by gitanos since at least the 1950s, mixing complex strumming with rhythmic, percussive tapping on their guitars' tops. The new Reyes generation — soon to meet and join up with three guitar-playing brothers from the Baliardo family — began creating more pop-oriented songs. They played at roma parties and at street corners until they got their chance to record under the group's new name, Gipsy Kings.

Sharp-eyed individuals might have noted that all the left-handed members of the group play guitars strung upside-down; this is usually as a result of the individuals' not having their own guitars when growing-up. Borrowing and playing a right-hander's the wrong way up was the only way to learn.

Band's story
They became popular with their self-titled first album, Gipsy Kings, which included the songs "Djobi Djoba ", "Bamboleo " and the romantic ballad "Un Amor". The song "Volare" on their second album Mosaique is a rumba version of Domenico Modugno's Italian hit "Nel Blu Dipinto Di Blu". The Gipsy Kings were enormously popular in France and throughout Europe along with the middle east. In 1989, Gipsy Kings was released in the United States and it spent 40 weeks on the charts, one of very few Spanish language albums to do so. Their cover version of "Hotel California" is an excellent example of fast flamenco guitar leads and rhythmic strumming (this version was featured in the Coen Brothers' movie The Big Lebowski).

In 1991 the Gipsy Kings provided flamenco guitar and backing vocals on Bananarama's version of "Long Train Running", using the pseudonym "Alma de Noche" ("Soul of the Night"). Also in '91, for a multi-artist project called "Simply Mad About the Mouse" — a compilation of new versions of songs from Disney films — the Kings contributed an annaly-crafted, fast-paced rumba flamenca version of "I've Got No Strings" from "Pinocchio" - replete with feverish flamenco guitar leads and rhythmic hand-claps (palmas). The lyrics' enthusiasm for freedom, not being tied down, fit the gipsy creed perfectly.

Their 1993 album "Love and Liberte" won the Latin Grammy Award for "Best Pop Album of the Year," and contained the enduring song "Montana," an emotional account of Roma chased from their birthplace by prejudice and persecution.

The '95 compilation "The Best of the Gipsy Kings" went platinum, staying on the charts more than one year. Albums "Mosaïque," "Allegria," "Este Mundo," "Gipsy Kings Live," "Love & Liberte," "Tierra Gitana," "Cantos de Amor" and "Volare! - the Very Best of the Gipsy Kings" went gold.

Lead guitarist Tonino Baliardo — who has always written the group's instrumentals — released his first solo album, Essences, in 2001; a second self-titled one followed in 2003.

Flamenco purists criticized their use of drum kits, electronic bass, and electronic keyboards and rock and reggae beats. Defenders say they helped create a new style.

Gipsy Kings' total album sales worldwide now exceed 18 million; they toured worldwide again in 2007. They are the world's best-selling music group from France in history, according to their website, where dates and places of their current tour can be found.

Years active: from 1987 till present.

Members
Gipsy Kings are members of two related families: the Reyes and the Baliardos (Reyes means Kings in Spanish). They are cousins of the flamenco great Manitas de Plata, lead guitarist Tonino Baliardo married his granddaughter. Nicolas, Canut, Paul, Andre and Patchai Reyes are sons of flamenco singer Jose Reyes. The Gipsy Kings are:

Nicolas Reyes: lead vocals, guitar
Paul Reyes: backup vocals, guitar
Canut Reyes: backup vocals, guitar
Patchai Reyes: backup vocals, guitar
Andre Reyes: backup vocals, guitar
Diego Baliardo: guitar
Paco Baliardo: guitar
Tonino Baliardo: lead guitar
Chico Bouchikhi was also a member of the Gipsy Kings, but quit after the album Mosaique.

This is the translation beautiful lyrics in any language To Fly

I think, such a dream
Will never return.
I painted hands and face in the blue
And then suddenly the wind kidnapped me
And I began to fly in an infinite sky.

To fly,
To sing
In the blue, painted in the blue,
I am happy to be above.

And I flew, flew happy
Higher the sun and even higher
While the world disappeared slowly
Far away down.
A sweet music played only for me.

But all my dreams disappeared at the daybreak because
When the moon sets, it brings them with itself.
But I continue dreaming about your beautiful eyes
Which are blue as the sky embroidered with stars...

To fly,
To sing
In the blue, painted in the blue,
I am happy to be above.

And I flew, flew happy
Higher the sun and even higher
While the world disappeared slowly
In your blue eyes.
Your voice is a sweet music
Which plays for me.

To fly,
To sing
In the blue of your blue eyes,
I am happy to be here dow

Volare, oh oh
Cantare, oh oh oh oh
Let's fly way up to the clouds
Away from the maddening crowds
We can sing in the glow of a star that I know of
Where lovers enjoy peace of mind
Let us leave the confusion and all disillusion behind
Just like bird of a feather, a rainbow together we'll find
Volare, oh oh
E cantare, oh oh oh oh
No wonder my happy heart sings
Your love has given me wings
Penso che un sogno così non ritorni mai più
Mi dipingi con le mani e la faccia di blu
Poi d'improvviso venivo dal vento rapito
E incominciavo a volare nel cielo infinito
Volare, oh oh
E cantare, oh oh oh oh
Nel blu, dipinto di blu
E che dici di stare lassù
E volavo,…

To remember is to live again. This beautiful song , bring to me wonderful memories. In 1958 Volare was the number one song on Billboard during 5 weeks. In Havana, Cuba, that year, when I started courting my future wife, I gave her a 45 rpm record of Volare. When I heard the sweet voice of her and stared into her golden brown eyes, I felt like floating in the blue skies.

God took my beloved spouse to Heaven at the time of my life when I needed her the most. The years that we share together filled me with big happiness. I know that this separation is only temporary until the moment of my departure arrives, when with the grace of God I will fly towards the blue of the infinite sky to reunite again with her for all eternity.

The first time I heard the Gipsy Kings was in 1991 bringing my son to college. His dad and I were driving him down to UNC in N.C from Cambridge MA. His father and I separated when our son was around 2-3, though he always saw his father almost everyday, he dropped by the house on weekdays after work because he worked for Harvard U. in the maintenance dept. & my son and I lived just a 5 min drive from Harvard and he also had him on weekends and we just always was around each other for holidays, and especially me because we'd go over to my in-laws for dinners etc. In fact my MIL is 100 yrs old! : ) Anyway, so we're driving down and Shantu, my ex puts in a cassette tape, yup it was that long ago and this great music & singing filled the car and then this song - just blows me away for many reasons: my one and only "baby" is off to college, I grew up in a house full of music, so the first time I heard this particular song was as a kid when my mother had her day off playing the radio & Dean Martin sang it, even back then it was joyful and when my son's father's cancer came back after one year of being cancer free and he only had a short time on this earth, we all took turns taking care of him in his home and when my "shift" was over and I'd be driving home, I would blast this song and sing it at the top of my lungs for the 10-15 min drive. It got out my grief for my son and the anger that he had to deal with this and when his father went into hospice, which didn't last that long, I'd play it and sing..it's a song that I see the comment of 5 years ago from JoA, "If this is played at your funeral you'd come back to life." I certainly will say with all the different associations I have with this song there's a melancholy that I feel first and then joy mixes in and ...I'm off singing, clapping, and feeling the great joyful parts of life. My son is 45 yrs old,( yeah he did graduate eventually ) a dad to two sons, an 18 yr old and 10yr old. He's the greatest father, husband, son and human being one will ever come across..sorry to vent, not vent, reminiscing. 💖🌺

Back in the day when you would make your sweetie a mix tape (cassette which was from your albums)....all the songs had a specific correlation to a special experience....except the last song which was this & it simply said...”cuz who doesn’t love the Gipsy Kings”?
