Hi,

If you're looking for singing, you might find this interesting.

http://perso.orange.es/sonionegro/sigclas.htm

The samples are sung verse but they were taken from recordings with good guitar playing.

Melchor de Marchena was excellent at siguiriyas, although not too many people play like him today. Niño Ricardo, Manuel Morao, the Jero brothers, Manolo Sanlúcar accompanying singers in the 1970s (especially Manuel Agujetas), El Poeta accompanying Chocolate (hard-to-find recording), of course Sabicas... Pepa and Juan Habichuela, too.
