Julio Iglesias (Spain)
The undisputed voice of romance during the '80s, Iglesias brought poetic sensuality and Latin charm back to mainstream pop music. Whether he sings in Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, French, or English, Iglesias is a master of the confessional tone: a vocal style which implies "I am singing to you alone, my dear."

Radio Tarifa
With Mediterranean instruments like the oud, derbuka and ney, Radio Tarifa collapses recognizably Arabic sounds with flamenco rhythms, playing with a flair reminiscent of a traditional Balkan wedding band. (The Spanish ensemble also tackles a 16th-century Sephardic tune and a 12th-century French procession.) Central to Radio Tarifa's charm is the rough-edged voice of Benjamin Escoriza, whose throaty elocution makes his Spanish a terrific blur of clarity and wavering timbre.
