Bob Azzam & The Great Expectation - Bob Azzam & The Great Expectation (self-titled) (Fire Orange Color) Vinyl LP
One-off 1969 oddity with the drum break everyone chases.
- First reissue in any format of the 1969 Audio Fidelity album
- Includes 'Rain Rain Go Away,' long chased by crate diggers for its break
- Remastered and pressed on fire orange vinyl by Real Gone Music
Bob Azzam was an Egyptian-born singer who built his career in Europe, and in 1969 he cut one strange, wonderful album with a band called The Great Expectation. Crate diggers know it for the drum break on "Rain Rain Go Away," chased for decades. The rest of it earns the reissue: a fuzz-and-sitar reading of the Stones' "The Last Time," a Tropicalia turn on "Berimbau," and "Mon Amour" leaning into an Arabic melody. Remastered by Real Gone Music and pressed on fire orange vinyl, its first reissue in any format. Street date: September 4.
