Customer Reviews

Very nice5
I honestlty don't know why no one rated this c.d because it was great.
Everyone will absolutely fall in love with 1.temple of seduction.
2.Nagesh el henna was very nice sensual sound to it.
3.El sultan it's the remix , lets get it.
4.Casbah dreams I fell in love with it, completely in love.
5.Saharah nights, reminds me of something off of alladin, also a very sensual sound to it.
6.Soutanbi, I didn't care for to much , but it has a very festive beat to it.
Overall I thought it was a very good c.d .
7.Cleopatra on the nile was okay I would'nt give it a five start.
8.Nawaem, loved it from the very beginning I could not control myself when I heard it and started shimmying.
9.Dance of the desert, was by far matched with
10.El Malika I liked both song very much they were my favorite out of the listenings.
11.layali was a okay good for a closing song though.
I think this c.d will be very good for intermediate and beginners to learn choreo too.

Not Really the Best of Belly Dance3
Although the selections on this CD are all quite good, overall, I would not say that this is the BEST of belly dance. For one thing, I thought there was too much fast music and not nearly enough of the slower, taxim, music. I would say that this is a good CD for people who want middle-eastern-sounding music, but who aren't really into belly dance, per se. Fine for a middle-eastern dinner party. Not so much for a belly dance class, performance, or even practice. But that's just my opinion!

Not bad for less than $75
As a student of bellydance, I like to aquire any CD with music that I can practice to or just enjoy. I haven't heard this CD in it's entirety yet, but I like what I heard. I was listening to it while I was driving, and although not giving my full attention to the music, I found myself shimmying in my car seat. =D This is always a good sign for me.
