I should have at least recognized the voice. The persian superstar Googoosh singing Djadeh with a touch of Shirley Bassey and a dramatic horn-section backing her. Kieh, Kieh is a slow Pop ballad.
GOOGOOSH, Kieh, Kieh (Who is it?)
About me:
My name is Andreas Michalke. I´m a cartoonist from Berlin, Germany and I like collecting records. Most of the records I find in thrift stores or at flea markets here in Berlin. I like a lot of music but I thought I`d focus on odd German records. Preferably with cartoon covers.
All my scans are high-resolution. If you double-click on them they will get much bigger.
Oh, what a voice ! Hearing that music I remembered in finding some old arabian 7″ at flea market years ago. From Iran, Lebanon, Egypt … When I listened to it again, I wondered about the different influences of arabish, far east and also european music. Sounds very strange and interesting.
Hope the people are getting freedom in mind (and art) back !
