Enrique Castell\u00f3n Vargas aka El Pr\u00edncipe Gitano (“The Gypsy Prince”) a Spanish flamenco singer, actor and dancer \u2013 died on 22 April 2020, due to Covid-19 complications. \r<\/p>

\r<\/p>

He was the brother of rumba singer Dolores Vargas “La Terremoto”.\r<\/p>

\r<\/p>

At the age of 14 he made his debut at the Teatro Calder\u00f3n in Madrid in the same show as Lola Flores and very soon after he performed his first show, \u201cPinceladas\u201d, becoming a great figure in Spanish song in the 1950s, despite the fact that his real passion was bullfighting, but he did not have success in that field.\r<\/p>

\r<\/p>

His most famous song is “Ob\u00ed, ob\u00e1”. He also made a peculiar version of the Elvis Presley song “In the Ghetto”.\r<\/p>
