At the time most records from Lebanon (and many other Middle Eastern and African regions) were cut at the Columbia factory in Athens Greece.This is the case with this one too.This lp is very rare cut with its red Lebanese labels,but an even rarer very small quantity was cut with different ,Greek labels,a batch of a couple hundred copies for sale in Greece,due to the fact it had bouzouki (written as buzuk) Greece's national instrument and they thought it might sell.From this elusive Greek issue comes this copy we have for auction here.
