• Interview.Patxi Andión: "Our society is a continuation of Francoism"

Singer and actor Patxi Joseba Andión González, known as Patxi Andión , has died this morning in a traffic accident in Soria , as confirmed by his nephew César Andión on social networks. Patxi Andión was 72 years old and last year commemorated her half-century musical career.

The accident of Patxi Andión took place at 8:55 at kilometer 59 of the A-15 motorway, in the direction of Madrid, in the municipality of Cubo de la Solana , in the province of Soria, when leaving the highway the Land Rover driving.

The 112 gave notice of this accident to the Soria Firefighters and Health Emergencies , Sacyl, which sent a basic life support ambulance, health personnel of the Soria Rural Health Center, at the same time that a further Mobile UVI was requested. At the scene, the Primary Health care staff confirmed that the injured person, whose identity was unknown at the time, was deceased, and the UVI requirement was canceled .

To say Patxi Andión is to hear a voice of brandy , hoarse, well-populated beard and 70s. He was handsome in the style of that time and the corduroy split when the singer and guitar composer in a shoulder bag married the most beautiful woman in that Spain who I was removing dandruff: Amparo Muñoz . Like it was Miss Universe in 1974. They all had it, until she took a shortcut to happiness and fell apart.

Patxi Andión was especially the one who sang the teacher , the one who put lyrics and music to a figure who was always there but who did not respect her so much to see her. It was like a Basque Serrat (although born in Madrid, on October 6, 1947) but without the poetic depth of the noi del Poble Sec. Some who had not gone to Madrid discovered the Trail by the photos or by that song by Patxi Andión , One, two and three : " This is the Trail, gentlemen / come and be encouraged / that here we are / we are Santa Claus ...".

A committed political singer-songwriter, he had famous songs like If I were a woman , La Jacinta (the story of a prostitute) or Canto , the latter two censored by the Franco regime.

Marked by May 68 in Paris

His career began in the late 60s when he moved to Paris , where he lived between 1967 and 1969 and witnessed the French May . At that time he led a bohemian life and began acting in La Candelaria, a room located in the Latin Quarter of Paris, reports Efe.

Upon his return to Spain, Patxi Andión worked together with Luis Eduardo Aute and composed songs for Mari Trini. In the late 60's he recorded his first single.

The first album came out in 1968 with the title Portraits , followed by Eleven Songs in Parentheses (1971), Word by Word (1972), Possibly (1972), Where the Water (1973) and Como el Viento del Norte (1974) , in which he paid tribute to Lorca.

Patxi Andión wrote new songs of protest song in some of his works such as José María Iparaguirre, Patxi Andión'en era (1974), Outward Journey (1976), Forbidden Songbook (1978) - vetoed by most radio stations- and Architecture , with which he closed his first musical cycle in 1979.

He continued his musical career with the film in the 80s, composed more than 500 songs and published books of poems, stories and the novel The virtue of the murderer (1998), but ended up hanging the guitar perhaps because it required some tours and being at the service of a marketing that came great. He was a young corduroy, restless and at his leisure .

He put face to Pepe Carvalho , the detective charnego, brute and sentimental of Vázquez Montalbán , in Murder in the central committee (Vicente Aranda, 1982), but his pretty face did not reflect the tasty eyes of those who seek life in the Chinese District .

Patxi Andión also participated in La otra alcoba (1976) and in La estanquera de Vallecas (1987), both of Eloy de la Iglesia, in La la serie central Brigada (1989), was Professor of Journalism , director of the Spanish School of Hunting and he was removed from the mundane noise by Cuenca, or so they said.
