His live works include recordings of performances, whether solo or accompanied. Among them are *La mandrágora* (1981), with Javier Krahe and Alberto Pérez; *Joaquín Sabina y Viceversa en directo* (1986), with the band Viceversa; *Nos sobran los motivos* (2000); *Dos pájaros de un tiro* (2007); and *La orquesta del Titanic* (2012), in collaboration with Joan Manuel Serrat. In the literary field, he has published nine books that compile song lyrics or poems, some of which previously appeared in the weekly magazine *Interviú*. In 2001, Sabina experienced a mild stroke that put his life at risk, but he recovered in a few weeks without physical sequelae. This event, however, marked a change in his perspective and plunged him into a deep depression, leading him to a temporary retirement from the stage. After overcoming this period, he released *Dímelo en la calle* (2002), followed by his eighteenth album, *Alivio de luto* (2005). His latest solo album to date is *Vinagre y rosas*, released on November 17, 2009, which achieved sales of 200,000 copies in its first month.
