biography
Latin star José José (born José Romulo Sosa Ortíz) started participating in festivals and contests around Mexico City at a young age, teaming up with Paco Ortíz and Alfredo Benítez after taking guitar lessons. "El Mundo" and "Mi Vida" were the songs featured on his first single, released in 1965. Around the same time, José José joined los Peg, playing double bass. "Nave del Olvido" became his first hit in 1969, and he won the OTI festival a year later with a song called "El Triste." He then climbed the most important Latin charts with "De Pueblo en Pueblo," 1973's "Hasta Que Vuelvas," 1974's "Déjame Conocerte," 1975's "Sentimientos," 1976's "Paloma," and the 1977 smash "Gavilan o Paloma,."
José José's acting career began with Sueño de Amor and La Carrera del Millón. In the early '80s, while becoming a major-venue performer, talented composer Manuel Alejandro produced Secretos, which sold over four-million copies worldwide. Reflexiones followed in 1984. Roberto Livi produced 40, 20 in Miami and Los Angeles, and José José promoted the album with shows around America, including New York's Madison Square Garden and Chicago's Pavillion. In 1994, José José celebrated his 30th career anniversary. ~ Drago Bonacich, All Music Guide

How I met José José

- I met José José when he wasn't the well known singer and performer he came to be. It was 1971 when he came to sing in Tijuana, Mexico at the Municipal Auditorium about three blocks from my parents' home.
At the end of the concert, he was just talking to some people outside (no entourage or posse then) just him talking to a couple of other people. I'd seen him participating in a song festivl and me and my family loved his voice. My father kept saying "he'll be the next best thing that happened to romantic music in México". I asked for his autogrraph and he signed a piece of paper that I cut out and taped on to my closet door. It stayed there for about 5 yrs. After that it became impossible to try to get anywhere near him. I now feel soo bad such a talent was waited because of drugs and alcohol addiction. To see how he hardly now has a speaking voice, it's truly heart breaking.
He was in my opinion one of the best singers Mexico has had. I love his music from the 70's, 80's and early 90's. Anytime I am sad or get nostalgic, he's my man! - Be the first person to rate this comment!
