Historic recordings from Manuel Cano...
In his book "La Guitarra - Historia, Estudios Y Aportaciones Al Arte Flamenco" from 1991 (2nd ed) Manuel Cano included 2 MCs with historic recordings (Breva, Torre, Chacon, Niña de los Peines, Cojo de Malaga etc., accompanied by Ramon Montoya, Juan Gandulla, Luis Molina etc.). I digitalized and uploaded them to SoundCloud

RE: Historic recordings from Manuel ... (in reply to edguerin)
quote:
They mean Nueva as in “ the oldest **** ever”
Cano doesn't explain this in detail. According to him, Pastora Pavon "presents this piece under the title of -Buleria Nueva- demonstrating it's [bulerias] two forms. Verses in minor mode accompanied by -toque por medio- ending in the more festive major mode." He goes on to explain that this more festive form is underlined by the tongue-twisting [trabalenguas] play on words at the end.
