According to David Lagos if you’re looking for an example of soleá de Triana, you’ve got to listen to El Arenero.

(You can watch a video of him below.)

But first, here’s one of the letras he sings that I think you’ll find amusing:

Soleá de Triana
Traditional

Ay siempre comprando peines
y siempre está espelucaita
dime que demonio tienes

You’re always buying hair combs
but your hair is always messy  
What on earth is that about?

You can hear this letra about 4:10 in the video below:
