Miguel Vargas Jimenez, Bambino, died on 5 May 1999. He was one of the most charismatic flamenco artists. With a unique artistic style, he was known as the king of rumbas during a few years. His rumbas dethroned the Pescaílla’s funky Catalan rumba with a more suggestive and flamenco sound, and his “bulerías” outshined the boleros by Machín and Gardel.
