I'm not sure of recordings of him personally, but I do know that he made some songs for a singer named Yair Dalal. A little info about him was
the following:
SALIM EL NUR - music of the iraqi jews
http://www.yairdalal.com/concerts1.html
A concert dedicated to the music of Salim El Nur, who was born in Baghdad
(1920) and immigrated to Israel at 1950. His most famous compositions is "Ayuha
Al'Saaki" which was written by the Andalusian King Ibn Al Muataz. Salim El Nur
composed the song at the age of 18 and the famous singer Salima Mourad - the
great singer of Iraq pre World War II, performed the song which became a hit
all over the Middle East. In November 2000, Salin El Nur was honored with the
Tel Aviv City prize for his long life creativity
I also found:

Hope this helps a little. It gives the name of his most famous song, so that may be a start for you.
