Thru the "Sawtuha" project and Blitz The Ambassador playing quite some shows in Morocco I've had the pleasure to travel North Africa quite frequently lately and whenever possible I did some record shopping. This is a selection of some of the finds, music from the 60s and 70s from Syria, Lebanon, Egypt, Morocco and Tunisia. Some known, some not yet.
Here is the tracklist:
01. Assa'd Khoury - Al Gaba
02. Sabah - Dek El Kaff
03. Karim Shourhy & Andrea Rayder - Take Me Back To Cairo
04. Fadoul - Sid Redad (Papa's Got A Brand New Bag)*
05. Ziad Rahbani - Intro Instrumental 2
06. Sharifa Fadel - Mawal El Ashak
07. Salah Ragab and The Cairo Jazz Band - Egypt Strut
08. Golden Hands - Take Me Back
09. Elias Rahbani & His Orchestra - Moonlight Melody
10. Mahmoud Megri - Tefham
11. Elias Rahbani - Dance Of Maria
12. Abdou El Omari - Rajaat Laayoun
*We've reissued a whole LP of Fadoul's music, including his incredible James Brown cover. You can get it here: https://habibifunkrecords.bandcamp.com/album/al-zman-saib
