He thus far has performed approximately 5,000 concerts during his career.Early career to 1978Julio was the son of Julio Iglesias Sr, a doctor. García, who first met Iglesias in Miami recording studio Criteria in 2001, says that his intention was to offer “a new look at the man and the character, someone who everyone in the world knows, but who, like any human being, has dirt that has not been dished.” The book, says García, is also “a sociocultural chronicle of an entire country over more than seventy years. Julio Iglesias has sold over 250,000,000 records in different languages and released 77 records. The bio also delves into Iglesias’ marriage to Isabel Preysler, constant fodder for gossip magazines until she ended the union in 1979, as well as his relationship with his son and fellow singing star Enrique Iglesias, who began his career under an assumed name to escape the shadow of his father. “When I go out with a woman, when I have her in my mind, however beautiful the woman is and however romantic the evening” García quotes Iglesias as once saying, “I always ask myself, is she with me because of who I am or what I represent? That has made me doubt a lot and suffer quite a bit.” Julio Iglesias originally released Lamour au grand soleil written by Harry Belafonte, Irving Burgie and Pierre Carrel and Julio Iglesias released it on the album Fidèle in 1981. The book probes Iglesias’ feeling about success, and professes his insecurities with the ladies. Published to coincide with the 50-year anniversary of Iglesias’ first album, Yo Canto, the 800-page book covers the 76-year-old crooner’s superstar achievements: his 350 million records sold throughout the world, his place among the five best-selling artists of all time and Spain’s internationally best-known artist of all time.
