The best source for older flamenco recordings is "The Flamenco Connection." You can look up its website with phone No., ordering information, etc. The owner, Guillermo Juan Christie, stocks a good selection of CDs of both older and contemporary flamenco recordings--guitar and cante. As examples, I purchased a great double CD recording entitled, "Ramon Montoya: El Genio de la Guitarra Flamenca, Grabaciones Historicas 1923-1936." Also, I have purchased a CD of Nino Ricardo, produced by a French firm, "Le Chant du Monde," and a recording by Fosforito among others. There may be other sources, but The Flamenco Connection has always provided me with very interesting, older flamenco recordings.
Cheers,
Bill
