RAI MUSIC
Cetin | NYC, USA | 12/26/2000
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I have been interested in rai music for a time being since I began to listen Rachid Taha's Diwan album. I first realized Cheb Mami in a song named Desert Rose by Sting and I was quite impresed with his voice. If you like to listen something different and you like to tap your feet while listening this album is simplt the best for you. I especially recommend this album to poeple who are already acquinted with arabic tunes."

"A great Middle Eastern CD!If you want a great introduction to rai,choose this one!



I reccomend the tracks "Meli Meli","Bledi" and "Azwaw 2." The last one pairs Arabic music with Celtic music.It is fantastic.These are the highlights,but there are no fillers.Perfect!



I wonder what has become of Cheb Mami since his collaboration with Sting in "Desert Rose." He's great!"
