When I want to introduce someone to flamenco guitar I usually start with Peña's CD of pieces by Niño Ricardo and Ramon Montoya. It is well recorded, his Gerundino sounds beautiful, it is generally accessible to people accustomed to other styles of music, and it contains music of genuine substance. If they seem interested enough, I might then progress to Sabicas, Manolo Sanlucar and Paco. I never try them on cante, unless I have reason to believe they are particularly open minded. In that case I might try them on La Niña de los Peines, or Mairena with Melchor de Marchena, on some of the cuts where they hit it off well and Mairena sings in tune. Once in a while he really nails it. For me, Melchor is one of the all-time great accompanists. I haven´t done it yet, but I think I might try Rocío Marquez and Dani de Moron some time. RNJ
