Hi David,

I don't know for the UK, but it I know it is available in France at:

http://www.cdmail.fr (world music section is impressive)

Another good ressource for buying CDs in France and Europe is:

http://www.arab-art.org/en

This site is well organized with multi-criteria search engine and a lot of infos on artists

buying from this site is also an act of supporting a non-profit association:
(Arab-Art) Association for the Recognition of the Arab Artists and their Art is a non-profit French association.
An association of volunteer artists believing in the associative work and looking at it as a natural environment of artistic exchange.

>> The aim of Arab-Art :
Attempts to raise public awareness and to preserve the Arab artistic heritage, particularly artistic antique works;
encouraging the cultural encounter and mixing of artists coming from the two Mediterranean banks and their better integration and recognition; leading their cultural and festive life.

Hi Alami

Many thanks for that. Is there any chance you could post clips of a few more tracks to get a feel of the rest of the album?

Best wishes

Hi David

Attached are extracts from the other tracks, it is an oud only album and if you liked organza I think you'll like the rest.
