Early tape from Editions Bouarfa's catalogue - probably from 1980 or 1981. Samir Belkheir was known later as Samir Staïfi; he lived several years in Lyon, and has been a really important figure in the development and the "modernization" of staifi repertoire and aesthetics. He was an early experimenter of the genre, using drum machines, synths & effects into his compositions, as much as blending it with Algeria's other musical expressions - for example, with trumpet player and raï master Messaoud Bellemou. This tape features beautiful compositions with early 80s synths and a nice crossover orchestration.
Only two (long) tracks on A side, four on b-side. Top condition for such an old tape!
