Four sides of previously-unreleased
ethnic mythic mystic jazz fromt he
legendary Egyptian drummer! Before the
re-release of his labum with the Cairo
Jazz Band recently, the name Salah Ragab
was best known to jazz fans and record
collectors by way of another LP that was
recorded with Sun Ra in the early '70s.
His album 'Prism Music Unit' with Cairo
Jazz Band was released in Egypt with
another by the Cairo Free Jazz Ensemble,
but perhaps only Salah himself knew of
the other songs he had recorded at the
time, but didn't make it onto these LPs.
The tapes lurking for decades in an old
trunk, it's taken until now for them to
see the light of day, and we present
them here as four amazing pieces of
Egyptian jazz on 2 seven inch singles.
Entombed within a hand-printed, hand-
made pyramid box, this is the first time
that these recordings will have come to
light. Ladies and Gentlemen, behold the
splendor that is Salah Ragab and the
Cairo Jazz Band!
