I cannot remember how I heard about Sheikh Imam, but I listened to this Egyptian singer/oud player a lot while in Egypt. Mostly just this song- it's beautiful!!
Whenever I'd go looking for his CD in Cairo, everyone would say, "Oh nononono sell Sheikh Imam." Finally, after weeks of searching one honest salesman said, "Sheikh Imam is great oud player, bad Egyptian. He talked bad about governements." Kids, that's governmental censorship. Thank goodness for youtube. Enjoy!
