Album Recommendations

I have a 2-hour daily commute to work and back, and have been looking for good solo flamenco guitar albums to listen to, however, I keep gravitating back to Paco's old stuff. I use youtube and Amazon Unlimited Music to explore different listening material, but have not had much luck. The one other album that I can think of, is our own Ricardo M's solo album which was included in a guitar purchase I had made a couple of years ago. It's one of those albums that you can play entirely and not need to hit the SEEK button. A few others that have caught my attention are from Paco Pena and Manolo Sanlucar. Do you guys have any recommendations for pure flamenco guitar albums that are decently recorded? (meaning, not overly compressed, without synths, vocals, other instruments. Would love to get my hands on some old-school Carlos Montoya - Type stuff, but the recordings are not so great)

quote:
ORIGINAL: Ricardo Esteban de Sanlucar Mario Escudero Enrique Del Melchor “cuchichi”. My favorite is Ramon montoya for old school stuff. There's a story, which I can't verify, that says Don Ramon went to the leading classical guitarist of the day, Miguel Llobet, and asked whether Llobet thought he should learn to read music. Llobet thought it over for a while, and said, "No, I think you are fine as you are." I read somewhere that no matter what genre he had chosen, Ramon Montoya would have been a great musician, and that Niño Ricardo had no choice but to become a great flamenco guitarist. RNJ
