va -- On The Horizon [Graham's Selection Late Summer'19]



An easy but freaky selection to keep your ears warm before the summer ends... Half instrumental, half vocal, this comp sails from Peru (Los Mayorales) to Pakistan (the amazing in-flight composer Karim Shahabuddin), via Jamaican instros (Byron Lee, Jo Jo Bennett), Turkish Bossa-Nova (Zeki Müren) and Groove (Zafer Dilek, featuring saz master Arif Sağ on "Hudayda"), US psych & garage (New Colony Six, Iron Butterfly) and Soul-Jazz (Young Holt Unlimited), British poppy Freakbeat (Joe Meek's Syndicats, Manchester's Hollies, The Spencer Davis Group), Italian Exotica (Rino De Filippi) and Greek & Israeli popstars (Stelios Kazantzidis, Arik Einstein)...

Thanks: Jean-Pop II, Booty, Chucks, Akram, Derya
