Must-have flamenco albums/videos...

I've got a handful of CDs and a couple of videos, but I'd like to buy some more. I'd love to hear some opinions on essential titles.

Currently I have a smattering of Sabicas, Paco Peña, PdL, Niño Ricardo, Manolo Sanlucar, and Carlos Whatshisname.

Thanks in advance.

if you do a search, there have been topics in the last couple of weeks about favourite albums and players, you'll find many artists and albums there worth exploring...

This one ran for about 5 pages!

An interesting point that came across was not to limit yourself to soloists like PDL etc. but listen to the good accompanists as well.
