I bought Oriental Improvisations last week and I like very very much this cd.
What about him?
Is he in USA or in the middle east?
Has he got more cd?

His name is Ghassan Bashir. He is from Jordan, but he now lives in USA. You can read more about him in his website at:
http://www.ghassanbashir.com/bio.html
There are some video clips on Youtube for him:

I also think he is a member of Mikeouds forum and he uses his real name "ghassan bashir" as his username.
Hope this helps.
