Another one. Old video by ziad in the mid 80s introducing the oriental jazz. You will hear the base guitar playing quarter tone as well as the
trombone. Aslo, Marcel khalifeh is playing the Oud

Kata my friend, I love the second link ... "w 2ame777"

hey Oud Freak.
W AMEH is lovely but simple in composition. However, like anything ziad does, it has a concept behind it: from a simple melody and few instruments to
a polyphonic arrangement at the end. Traditional but innovative.

Listen carefully to that music and try to figure out the beat 
Also I liked yawmiyyat. Another lovely bayati from ziad.

Eh Kata akid, but I was referring to the fact that in the utube link you posted they play some measures of w ame7 and I was glad to discover that w
ame7 in fact a sort of remix of something Ziad had composed previously.
