I have quite a few of his recordings on my computer in mp3 format.
Granted, they are probably from an earlier digital conversion
with pops and cracks here and there, but they are decent enough
to enjoy this great monument of the Nahda.
I'm sure these recordings have undergone some serious cleanup
to be priced at 60-70$. I wish I could afford it. Rambaldi47 - 3-24-2013 at 04:43 PM
I would definitely recommend this set. His rendition of Dawr "Fouadi
'Amru Agib" (Dilnashin) is utterly amazing. Nearly 18 minutes of pure
tarab. David.B - 3-28-2013 at 05:51 AM
I just received the box, Kamal Kassar was very diligent. It's nice and ... BIG! Little deception about the plastic inside: it couldn't bear shipping
and it's broken in several spots. A bit frustrating because I won't be able to read one of the 2 books which is in Arabic only (320 pages). I'll catch
up on the smallest in English / French. BTW, I'm listening to "Fu'adi amro 'agib" and this is the most important
