Joan Manuel Serrat - Mediterraneo 1971

Spanish singer/songwriter Joan Manuel Serrat began playing music as a teenager, when he received his first guitar. In 1960, he participated in a pop band, playing along to Beatles songs and Italian pop tunes with his classmates at Barcelona's Agronomy School. In 1964, while singing in a radio show called Radioscope, host Salvador Escanilla helped him secure a record deal with the local label Edigsa, and he recorded his first EP the following year. Joan Manuel Serrat's first live stage performance came in 1966, when he sang at the Catalan Music Palace, and his debut album appeared one year after that. Soon after, he recorded the sophomore album Cancons Tradicionals and debuted as an actor in a movie calledPalabras de Amor.
After building up his Spanish audience during the late 1960s, Joan Manual Serrat went international with 1971's Mediterraneo, a popular album in the Nueva canción, Spanish folk, and ballad trova traditions. The album went out of print in the decades that followed its release and was eventually reissued in 2000, long after Serrat had established himself as one of the world's premiere Catalan songwriters.
