Arabic Music

There's gotta be some arabic fans out there. I personally really like old arabic pop stuff, Sabah, Fairuz, Wadi Al-Safi, etc. Traditional stuff is cool, too. Anything from Parlophone's Voix de L'Orient is great.

Armenian Lena Chamamyan has the most angelic beautiful voice. I love her music. Syrian jazz. Who would have thought.

I have albums by Khaled (Algerian Rai singer) and Hamid El-Shaeri (Egyptian Al Jeel musician) and they're both really good, highly recommended stuff. Both play Arabic pop styles, so they shouldn't be too difficult for Western ears.

Cheb Khaled is good ... also in rai music there's "Sawt al atlas" really good music.
Sadly arabic pop is deteriorating more and more.
