Favorite Songs/Instrumentals

I know this has been done before and it is probably juvenile...no it is juvenile, not probably, but favorite lists are always fun and get people involved

What are some of your very favorite songs and instrumentals in the world of flamenco?

The Paco Toronjo thread got me thinking about this, because his Fandango de Alonso has got to be one of my favorite pieces ever...another amazing fandango is Envidia by Antonio Molina an old classic that is better heard than described, especially since describing it takes longer than listening to it

Another short masterpiece is the tango (I think its a tango) Rosa Maria by Camaron...catchy as hell with excellent falsettas

And then there is the Siguiriyas by Carmen Linares that I can never remember the name

Instrumental has to be the original Rio Ancho from Almoraima..not much of an original choice, but rumba gets no better than that

So what are some of yours?
