1935: Bill Tatnall 'Fandango' (Library of Congress)

1938: Bill Boyd and His Cowboy Ramblers 'Spanish Fandango' (Bb B-7921) reissued on Old Timey OT105

Many of these performances have since been reissued on CD. A couple mentioned above, including the beaut Norman Blake recording, were recorded after 1972.
