High quality pressing. Artwork and label design by Pieter Heytens.

Abdou El Omari, the bachelor hairdresser, composer and organ player from Morocco got his final recognition almost 7 years after his passing away in Casablanca in total anonymity. Few of his recordings have been released in the 70s by the legendary Gam Boujema who still opens his record store Disques Gam in downtown Casablanca.
