Özel- Dance Into Your Sultan's Heart (El-Ay, 197?)

Turkish bellydancer and movie-star Özel Türkbaş recorded this record in NYC in the '70s with a modern middle-eastern ensemble that features Moog organ and electric guitar. Its the third installment in a album series geared toward teaching American women "that much misunderstood art we call belly-dancing". 320 vinyl rip by yours truly.

Belly Dance- Hommage a Baligh Hamdi

GC has been on the receiving end of some killer suprise gifts and neighborly goodwill all day. Sometimes when it rains at pours. First came the semi anonymous copy of BLA (previous post, below). Then, Owl over at Holywarbles just up and laid this superfly Baligh Hamdi joint right down on my digital doorstep. He knows I love this man. Must say, that Owl is a solid mate.
