Bob Azzam & His Orchestra- The Last Time (1968)

Bob Azzam was an Egyptian born Lebanese singer and band leader who is most famous for his 1959 hit Mustapha.  But he seems to have been nothing if not versatile - I love his version of the Vinicius-Baden Powell standard Berimbau, and here he takes a very cool stab at the Rolling Stones.

Bon Entendeur & Bob Azzam 🎶 Viens à Juan-les-Pins

[julio-viernes]

Uno de los 4 instrumentales de "Reflections In A Crystal Wind" (Vanguard, diciembre 1965). "Dopico" es una raga de Richard Fariña con una pequeña parte 1´ 13" - 1' 48", que es igual a la famosa canción tradicional "Ya Mustapha" que Bob Azzam llevó a la fama en 1959, ya saben, todo aquello de “chérie te quiero, chérie yo te adoro como la salsa del pomodoro”, etecé... El elepé también lleva las folkies "Chrysanthemum" (madre mía, que brillantes y nitidos suenan esos instrumentos); la delicada "Miles" de Mimi; y otra raga más breve, "Allen´s Interlude". Por otro lado el vals contracultural, "Sell-Out Agitation Waltz", que me ha hecho recordar el "Waltz For a Pig" de The Who, en realidad de The Graham Bond Organization que eran los que tocaban en 1966 en esa cara B del single "Substitute", y no los Who.
