Mohammed Abdel Wahab- Cleopatra

Staying in an Egyptian vein after last weeks post, here's a lovely album from another Delta great, Mr. Mohammed Abdel Wahab. Interestingly, amongst Abdel Wahab's typically prolific output are not only a song used as Libya's national anthem pre and post Gadaffi, but the anthems of Tunisia and the U.A.E. as well. As for information on this selection, you'll have to wait a few weeks  until my Arabic translator can be called upon to help me out with some of these liner notes, but for now the music is here .
