Various – Bagdad Daddy A Carpet Ride Into Middle Eastern Exotica (CD)

Come with us on a magic carpet ride to the exotic Middle Eastern playground. A land of sultans and pashas, with harems of scantily clad women, smoking hookahs whilst reclining on cushions of silk.

These are the myths of the Middle East that dominated everything from theatre marquees to the stories and cartoons of men’s magazines in the 1950s an ’60s. A vision seen in countless films from Salome, Thief Of Bagdad through to Harum Scarum. This was a land of glamorous wonder.

So put the truth to one side as we rub the magic lamp and conjure up images of idyllic nights by the oasis.
