Farid al-Atrash - Compilation

So, I don't know anything about Farid al-Atrash or about Arabian music in general, but this was left at my old apartment by the previous tenants, and it is fucking amazing. I'll post a few more things like this once I figure out how to rip a tape and once I find a computer that can read tricky CDs ("Big Pimpin" content forthcoming).

This is the greatest thing you have ever posted and nobody cares. I think you might be into some more jazz-oriented oud stuff like George Mgrdichian and John Berberian, those guys are Armenian so there are both Spanish and Middle Eastern influences but they are also straight psychos. Contact me for details.
