Revolutionary Pop songs
December 6, 1999
The Iranian
This album is one of the last Pop music tapes
produced in Iran (Esfand 1357 / March 1979). The studios were trying to
act "revolutionary" -- notice the album title and the songs.
The cover picture is from the movie "Parvaaz dar qafas" with
Saeed Kangarani and Farzaneh Davari. It was produced two months before
the revolution, re-edited and privately screened. But after the revolution
it was shelved forever because it did not meet the new Islamic censorship
codes. A few months later this music tape was also labeled "un-Islamic"
and banned. -- Thanks to Pedram Missaghi's Iran
