Are we talking both alive and dead artists?
How about Carmen Amaya and Antonio Gades Bailando with Duel guitars of Cañizares and Sabicas, Cante by Cameron and Estrella Morente with Ruben Dantes on percussion. ....with maybe Paco and Farruquito for the encore

paco with a surprise. with a completely new cd and some new singers. everything in that concert must be new and never revealed before
You know what's interesting was in 1997 I saw paco just before he released Luzia. He performed all new stuff from that disc, but I went there armed with my ideal concert of Nino curro, la barrosa, Panuelo etc, and it was a jolt to the system to hear all this new unfamiliar music. I felt like I had slipped into a different dimension, and it was not really a "good" feeling.
I would have loved to see Nuñez and Tomatito together, or Paco and Nuñez together, but back in the day not now. Youtube has diluted a lot of my "dreams" of concerts cuz it has so much stuff I would have thought I would never see live. For example Guitar WARS with Paul Gilbert and Nuno BEttencourt playing together tunes like Scarified and CUpid's DEad, the guitar Trio concerts, Skakti, the Rosenberg django type groups, etc etc

I want to see Paco making his last and BEST music,a last colossal CD, before he retires and goes fishing all day and relaxing at the beach forever. But i am not sure if that happens.
Yep, youtube is fantastic and bad at the same time. You are overwelmed with stuff. Also downloading all the tabs is a bad idea. I have like millions of tabs , i don't know where to start, so i simply gave up and there they are, in my harddisc, and will probably will never be practiced. But instead i practiced books which i bought, because i had the feeling i paid for them so i must use them

Nino Ricardo accompanying La Nina de los Peines, while sharing a bottle of manzanilla with Paco Cepero and Camaron.
Cheers,
