feat. Samy El Bably
You wanted a love song? You'll get a love song. In 1929 the Cuban poetess Dulce Maria Loynaz wrote a love letter to Tut Anch Ammun. This CD is meant to be the musical answer of the king. Not written directly by the great old pharaoh himself but by such celebrated Egyptian componists as Mohamed Abd el-Wahab and Farid El Atrache. These tracks have been wonderfully orchestrated and recorded by Mahmoud Fadl and his Cairo Connection. Exquisite trumpet played by Samy El Bably and excellent darbuka percussions. A billet doux from Cairo which will get every postman on his feet.
