A New "Olympia" Treasure

 


Longtime fans of Julio Iglesias may notice something familiar appearing on streaming platforms. 

A new live album titled en el OLIMPIA has recently been released on iTunes and Spotify, and the name immediately brings to mind the classic En el Olympia recordings many of us know so well.

While the title echoes the historic Olympia performances, this new release appears to feature a different selection of songs and a shorter running time than the original album from the 1970s.  Rather than a straight reissue, it seems to be a newly assembled live collection that revisits the Olympia legacy from a fresh angle.

For fans, this makes the release especially intriguing.  It feels less like a replacement and more like an unexpected find.  A reminder that even decades into Julio’s career, there are still moments, recordings, and interpretations waiting to be rediscovered.

If you love Julio’s live recordings and the intimacy of his Olympia performances, this new album is worth a listen.  Sometimes the greatest joy as a fan is stumbling upon a familiar name that leads to something new.

Have you listened yet?  Let me know what you think of this latest Olympia release.
