Manolo Escobar Manolo Escobar was the fifth of ten children of Antonio García and María del Carmen Escobar, to whom he dedicated the song "Madrecita Maria del Carmen". His father left the family farm tradition to devote himself to the hospitality and culture. Then he met a retired Republican teacher, who gave him coverage in exchange for teaching all his brothers, including the musical one. Manolo started playing the lute and played the piano in his early years.

When he was 14, he moved from Almeria to Barcelona with his brothers, where he worked as an apprentice of various trades. He started in show business between Badalona (Barcelona) and Barcelona's red-light district (currently known as El Raval), with the group Manolo Escobar y sus guitarras. His brothers Salvador and Baldomero were also in the group. Later, when the group started to become successful, Juan Gabriel (another brother) joined. Other siblings, Juan Gabriel and Maria José, would later write songs for the group.

In 1962, he rose to fame with Canciones del Maestro Solano, his debut in Madrid and Barcelona and the premiere of the movie filmed in the town of Arcos de la Frontera (Cádiz): Los Guerrilleros.

Even after 1965 (when the copla genre popularity was in decline), Escobar topped the number of record sales and was one of the few artists who had his own company and show.

In the early 90's, he moved in to his Porompompero chalet in Benidorm (Spain), named after his well acclaimed song. He appeared in more than twenty films and recorded almost eighty albums, twenty-four of which are gold records, and he also won a platinum cassette. His best-selling album was Y viva España, which sold 6 million (10 million in subsequent official reprints) copies. It was the best-selling album in Spain from 1973 to 1992.[2]
