Gipsy Kings is a Flamenco act. Their sound grew out of Simón Díaz, Domenico Modugno, Eagles, Randy Newman and Bob Marley.

They run in the same orbit as Ottmar Liebert, Armik, Compay Segundo, Kaoma and Cesária Évora, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Joan Baez, Bananarama, Takagi & Ketra, Elodie and Mariah Angeliq, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 36 connections around Gipsy Kings, reaching back through Simón Díaz and forward to Joan Baez.
