Abdullah Din & The Jokes — Singapore Malay 7" EP (IWE, 1970)

A mega rare 1970 Singapore pressing of this Malay pop EP featuring Abdullah Din with backing band The Jokes. Released on the Inter-World Enterprise (IWE) label (WAA 1503) and recorded at Kinetex Recording, Singapore — this is a genuine piece of Singapore music history from the golden era of local Malay pop.

IWE was one of Singapore's key independent labels of the late 1960s and early 1970s, and 7" EPs from this era are extraordinarily difficult to find in any condition. The full lyrics are printed on the back cover sleeve.
