This film was brought to my attention by Ian Nagoski in an absolutely beautiful talk I went to last week about migration and music in early 20th
Century NYC. Ian's work has been raised here numerous times but I would like to repeat the recommendation for everyone to check out his Canary Records
label,
https://canary-records.bandcamp.com/
a treasure chest for lovers of Middle Eastern music.

Very cool, thanks for posting. Here is also Samia Gamal in 1954, "Valley of the Kings." https://youtu.be/PAIcHB4BE0M The legendary Egyptian dancer was in America a lot during this period, she had a brief marriage with a Texan after
splitting with Farid El Atrache around 1952/1953
