More Info
This cassette is distinguished by its cohesive, masterful arrangement led by oud and organ that hardly needs accompanying vocals, yet still greatly benefits from the rich timbre and broad voice of Homs-born singer Kheiro Fetrawi. The high energy and dance rhythms of the cassette make it ideal for parties and road trips. According to some sources, Kheiro Fetrawi hails from the city of Rastan in rural Homs, collaborated on many occasions with Naim Al Sheikh and keyboard player Talal Al Daour, and alongside them became one of the most important Syrian shaabi singers in central Syria from the 1990s until his unknown date of death.
