Following this previous article, I wanted to share with you for today “Weqtach Tef’Hem“, a mesmerizing deep catchy Oriental Soul Jazz Funk track with beautiful psychedelic Fender Rhodes parts, taken from the second album recorded in 1977 by Younes & Mahmoud Megri from the band “Les Freres Megri“, a Moroccan rock band formed in Oujda (Morocco).

The band consisted of four members, popular session musicians, composers and producers : three brothers : Hassan, Mahmoud and Younes Megri, and their sister Jalila Megri.

The album presented here is the original moroccan “Boussiphone” press, label founded by the Moroccan producer Mohamed Boussif and that is way rarer than the French release on “Les Artistes Arabes Associés“.

Cherry on the cake : it’s dedicated by Mahmoud Megri himself – Enjoy !

For today, I wanted to share with you “I Notturni“, an incredible powerful psychedelic Rock Funk Soul instrumental with gorgeous flute & organ parts, taken from the one-and-only EP released by the Lebanese band “I Notturni” in the 70s (I think, any informations are welcomed…), leaded by the composer & musician Khaled Choughari, and that used to play in several night clubs of Lebanon (it was the resident band of “Casino Du Liban” for some times), Iran & Egypt.

The band was composed with :

Khaled Choughari : Music, Band leading ;

Ermanno Riccordi : Lyrics ;

Conductor : Tony Akkawi ;

Super obscure & hard to find record, one of the hardest to find Lebanese treasures, hope you’ll like it !
