I just uploaded the book, Sabicas Flamenco Puro by Joseph Trotter to scribd. Here's a list of the solos:
1) Farruca - Punta y tacón 2) Fandango - Por los olivares 3) Alegrías - Campiña andaluza 4) Bulerías - Aires de Triana 5) Taranta - Ecos de la mina 6) Soleares - Bronce gitano
The book has been out of print for a while to the point that someone is selling a used copy on amazon for $125.00. Music is not meant to be hoarded by one person for profit but shared with everybody.

RE: Sabicas Flamenco Puro by Joseph ... (in reply to dformell)
They're good transcriptions: the first decent book of transcriptions of Sabas to become generally available, in fact (although there were a few transcriptions of individual pieces published in the ’40s, some of which are still floating about).
However, there is a bar missing after the first bar on page 8 (the 2nd page of the farruca). It is the same as the last bar on the previous page.
