Morente, Niño Josele by Niño Josele and Tributo Flamenco a Don Juan Valderrama by various artists.

Background

After completing his musical studies in piano and guitar at the Conservatory of Madrid and at New York's Saint Francis Prep., Limón began his professional career composing flamenco songs

for artists such as Enrique Morente, Estrella Morente, Remedios Amaya, Potito and Montse Cortés. Following this first stage, he started his career as a record producer with Cositas Buenas by

Paco de Lucia, Lágrimas Negras by Bebo Valdés and Diego El Cigala and El Pequeño Reloj by Enrique Morente. The recording process of Lágrimas Negras, which took three days to record, was

filmed by Spanish filmmaker Fernando Trueba. The album earned the Latin Grammy Award for Best Traditional Tropical Album and received a nomination for Album of the Year. Lágrimas

Negras stayed in the Spanish Album Charts for over 100 weeks. In 2009, Limón was awarded a Grammy Award for Best Latin Jazz Album for the album Juntos Para Siempre, another

collaboration with Bebo Valdés, in duo with his son Chucho.
