More Info
An early cassette from the career of Iraqi attaba and shaabi singer Abdullah Al Ghareeb, dating back to his first appearances as a child prodigy in Basrah in the late nineties. After George Wassouf's resounding success, recording companies from Iraq, Syria, and Lebanon searched for the next child prodigy, and between the nineties and early 2000s, they recorded dozens of cassettes featuring child singers. Few of them continued their careers as they grew older, Abdullah Al Ghareeb being one of them.
