Husain Sabsaby
Does anyone know where I can get any of his albums? I've tried emailing him but my emails were returned. It said the address was not valid.

Hi Jason
I bought three Sabsaby albums from Rashid Music, but they are very poor quality for full-price CDs. They are basically just MP3s burnt onto CD with no
proper liner notes or booklets to accompany them. Nice music, but a rip-off nevertheless.
Best wishes
David

I recently thought I'd take a chance and order one of the Husain Sabsaby CDs from rachid.com, along with a larger order. His CDs were on sale for
$4.98 each, so I thought it might be worth it. I got the one called 'Memories of Damascus'.
As David said, they are cheaply made CDs, but for $4.98, I think it was definitely a good deal - the music is very nice. Note that the CD uses a
stick-on printed label, which does not play well on some players. My laptop gave up halfway through the first song, but it played fine on another
player.
Just buy some other stuff with it to make the shipping cost worthwhile!
