El- Bakkar, Mohammed - Port Said - Music Of The Middle East (LP)

Lebanese tenor, lute player and conductor Mohammed El-Bakkar became a star in Egypt, where he appeared in several Arabic-language films. In 1952 he moved to the United States; where he went on to play a singing oriental rug salesman in the Broadway play Fanny. Port Said was his first LP; a superb piece of world music whose oriental flavours will make the perfect soundtrack for Oriental Dance.
