Forgve these long delays. Lets just say that the Internet in China is an adventure. Thanks to Funked Up East for this little diamond.

[Music] Barrio Latino Hungría – Está Como Va
¡Sabor! I didn’t expect something so salsa-ish to ever come from Hungary, but Barrio Latino Hungría does a stellar job in updating the Latin Jazz sound quite nicely.
[Music] How Salah Ragab Became an Undisputed Icon in Egyptian Jazz
There was no more important person in the realm of Egyptian jazz than drummer, bandleader and one-time collaborator with the legendary Sun Ra, Salah Ragab. Bandcamp Daily features the artist here.
[Music] The Dusko Goykovich Sextet – Swinging Macedonia (1967)
Trumpet player Dusko Goykovich released one of the finest jazz albums to ever come out of the Balkans in 1967. Swinging stuff.

[Music] Salah Ragab and The Cairo Jazz Band – Egyptian Jazz
What a magnificent find! Salah Ragab is the father of Egyptian Jazz. He produces a sound that blends the best elements of the venerable genre, as well as bits of Latin, soundtrack, and even cha-cha-cha in his concoction.
[Music] Eero Koivistoinen & UMO – Arctic Blues
Today’s treasure comes from a release from 2016. Finland’s Eero Koivistoinen pairs with his UMO Jazz Orchestra for a mellow, occasionally hot, new work. Not quite as wild as his 70s material, but still quite impressive.
