Subject(s): Raphael

A child prodigy from Linares, Spain, Raphael burst onto the scene in 1954 when, at nine years of age, he won the "Best Child Singer" award at the Salzburg Music Festival in Austria. His Sixties recordings took on varying shades of pop, and at one point he was taken under the wing of Beatles manager Brian Epstein. That association led to his first Madison Square Garden concert in 1967. During those days he was recording under the aegis of EMI Records' Latin imprint, Hispavox, experimenting with such unintended novelty tracks as "Jinetes en el Cielo," a Spanish version of the spaghetti western tune "Ghost Riders in the Sky."

In his homeland Raphael is also known as an actor, though older American audiences would be most likely to recall him from two appearances on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1970. His signature tune, "Yo Soy Aquel," is the "It's Not Unusual" of the Latin music world ? a passion-dripping lover's promise in rumba time. The song became a running joke during the Puerto Rican governor race of 1984, when then-governor Carlos Romero Barcelo used it in a radio spot to slam his opponent.

Raphael's absence from Miami stages these last few years shouldn't be taken personally. In 2003 the crooner suffered a bout of Hepatitis C, requiring a liver transplant. (He has fully recovered.) In the wake of that episode, he became one of the world's top promoters of organ donation, a cause he'll surely be shouting about from the stage this Friday.

Asunto: Raphael.

Un ni?o prodigio de Linares, Espa?a, Raphael aparecio en escena en 1954 cuando, a la edad de nueve a?os, gano el premio a La mejor Voz Infantil, en el festival de musica de Salzburgo en Austria. Las grabaciones de los sesenta adoptaron diversos matices de pop y durante un tiempo fue representado por el manager de los Beatles, Brian Epstein. Esa asociacion condujo a su primer concierto en el Madison Square Garden en 1967. Durante esos dias el estaba grabando bajo el sello latino de EMI. Hispavox, experimentando con canciones como Jinetes en El cielo, una version espa?ola de la melodia de ?Ghost Riders in the Sky? (Jinetes Fantasmas po r el Cielo)
En su tierra, Raphael es tambien conocido como actor, aunque la audiencia americana mas mayor le recordaran, lo mas seguro, por sus dos apariciones en el Show de Ed Sullivan en 1970.
Su cancion caracteristica, Yo Soy Aquel es la normal del mundo de la musica latina, una promesa de pasion de un amante en ritmo de rumba. La cancion llego a ser como una broma durante la campa?a a gobernador en Puerto Rico en 1984, cuando el entonces gobernador Carlos Romero Barcelo la uso en un anuncio publicitario para golpear a su oponente

La ausencia de Raphael de los escenarios de Miami estos a?os no deben tomarse de manera personal. En el 2003 el cantante sufrio un brote de hepatitis C, requiriendo un transplante de higado. (Se ha recuperado completamente) Despues de este episodio, llego a ser uno de los mas grandes promotores en el mundo a favor de la donacion de organos, una causa a la que seguramente hara un llamamiento desde el escenario en este viernes.
