 In 1996, his first "golden hits" album, Antología, was in the top 20 in Spain for at least 16 weeks, selling over 65,000 copies. In 1997, de Lucía performed in a tribute show to the assassinated Spanish politician Miguel Angel Blanco, alongside the likes of Julio Iglesias and Los Del Rio. In 1998 he released and produced "Luzia", dedicated to his mother (whose name is spelled phonetically). It is considered to be one of de Lucia's most complete and mature artistic statements.
