Delving into the deepest recesses of ra�, this compilation serves as a tribute to its roaring years, but also as a rejuvenation of the genre in its sulphurous, subterranean version. Through the pre- and post-independence years, from 1950 to 1970, ra� urbanised itself, with a generation listening to the traditional sounds, but also and mostly listening to twist, French vari�t� and rock music. Digipak edition including 20-page booklet with liner notes in French and English.TRACKS:01. Cheb Hindi - A Moi La Libert�02. Houari Benchenet - Malika03. Chab Mohamed Sghir - Khalouni04.
