Antranig Matossian JUST SOLD
Siro Gragner (Arka Records) 1978, USA

Obscure seldom seen album by singer Antranig Matossian and produced and arranged by famous armenian musician Charles Ezgilian. Clearly cheesy pop music but with an unusual drama synth sound mixed with Armenian folklore. Of course loaded with weirdo loops for the most open minded beat makers !

Seldom seen 7" by algerian artist Benchaib backed by Missoum and his orchestra including 2 superb tracks mixing jazz, latin sound (cha cha ) & arabic rythms, not that far from Baligh Hamdi production ...

Farouk Salama & Hani-Mhana
The loviest oriental dances (Sout El Hob) 70's, Egypt

First time i come across this great egyptian album. Farouk Salama & Hani-Mhana seems to be the composers, although I have never heard of their names, their music is very close to the work of the great Baligh Hamdi. Check on the soundclip the supeb "Rabab", "Houzni Alim" or "Warda-Min-Damina". Also don't miss out the triipy "Layali Maa-Hilwine". A pretty rare egyptian album. A few scuffings, cover is pretty clean with a bit of wear.

Satish Bhatia / Asha Boshley / Bharat Vyas
Boond-jo-ban-gayiMoti (EMI His master voices 3AEX-5120) 1967, India

Seldom seen unusual Bollywood soundtrack composed by Satish Bhatia. Weird to see the title is also written in Hebrew Some superb tracks like" Ankhiyan Tarsan Lagi" with twisted psychedelic feel, crazy orchestration and powerfull tablas solo as usual with Bollywood music ! Record look NM but plays with minimal background noise due to quality of presing. The cover with this beautiful artwork is in great shape with minimal wear.
