The often superficial relationship between Algeria's rai music and Jamaica's reggae is fleshed out by Khaled on Sahra, a CD named after his daughter. On 3 of the 12 tracks, he utilizes the cream of Jamaican studios and performers. The symbiosis is manifested most strongly on "Ouelli El Darek", which features no less than the I Threes, Mickey Chung, and Dean Fraser, among others, on a fine cross-cultural workout with Khaled at the top of his form. Elsewhere he picks out some of the best funksters and North African superstars, recording in Paris and Los Angeles with seven sets of producers, including Don Was, Philippe Heidel, Clive Hunt, and Akhenaton & Imhotep. Despite all these cooks, the stew holds together well with strong material and great performances, and echoes the international acceptance of rai music today--largely the result of Khaled's continued popularity at home and abroad. --Derek Rath

---and that is, did anyone notice that Tony Williams (Yes, THAT Tony Williams, I researched it) plays drums on this record too! OMG. You know? I am not going to review this disk, everyone else was plenty elegant in reviewing it, except to say: It's great!
Six stars if I could.

Great Melodies, Wonderful Voice.......2007-05-14

I am not a particular fan of Khaled. To be honest, I was introduced to his music by a friend about two years ago, when I discovered that one of my favourite songs from a group was indeed a cover/translation of one of his songs. To be honest, I loved this disc. I haven't heard much more of him beyond what is already here, but this disc made me want to explore a bit more his music.

Just Too Dangerous.......2007-04-28

Soulful, masterly, inexhaustible, joyful, passionate, powerful. No wonder those religious fanatics tried to kill him -- this much fun is just too dangerous.

100 STARS.......2006-09-28

I have worn out one copy of this cd. Nearly every track is PERFECT. It is pure passionate beauty and joy. BLISS to dance to!!!!!!!!!! Walou Walou puts me in ecstacy EVERY TIME. Love, love love love, love LOVE Khaled!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AWESOME MUSIC FOR THE REGGAE CATEGORY!.......2005-07-13

This music is great. I heard the song titled "Sahra" back in 1997, when my dad played it in his car. I was like who is this guy? I love REGGAE, SOCA, CALYPSO, ZOUK, COMPA, & AFRICAN MUSIC. All those six big genres and their sub genres fall under what I call The "REGGAE CATEGORY." This music is a mix of tropical, arabic, reggae funk, and true african falvors that reach through all borders. Khaled is truly a talented perfromer,singer, and writer. I am just surprised that he is not popular in America. If he had a RAI concer North America, I guarantee, many americans would have a "RAI" craze. Anyone reading this, I strongly recommend you buy this cd, if you do not like it, sell it back or give it to a friend. But give it a chance and it will grow on you. This music is great, it falls right under African-Algerian music. I promise you will not be disappointed.

Reggae Forever!

Product Description

Sahra Motalebi's debut as a singer-songwriter and producer, Feeding the Ghosts, (2006) is the first of a two EPs to be released later this year. A classically trained singer, and student of world sounds, Sahra's traditional rock and roll form calls on the lineage of larger-than-life females singers such as Sinead O'Connor, Siouxsie Sioux and Kate Bush, with influences as diverse as Maria Callas and Oum Kalthoum. Working with sound engineer Chris Coady, who recorded the latest releases by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and Cass McCombs and TV on the Radio, she explores the slickness of late 1980s production, the intimacy of experimental live percussion, and the immediacy of post-rock recording.
