More Info
Recorded at a wedding in the Sahel al-Ghab region in Syria in the early 2000s, this cassette brings together singer Wafik Habib with Talal Da'our on keyboards. The two names often collaborated during the period, whether to record new original work, or while performing at public events and weddings. Together, they achieved great local popularity that lasted for many years before becoming more widely acknowledged and gaining fame throughout the entire Arab world – each moving to pursue his own career in new places.
