AMG Review of Al Mahatta
John Storm Roberts
All Music GuideFor brilliance in ballad-singing, indefinability of genre, art and sheer gorgeousness of voice, Fairuz might be compared with Sarah Vaughan. Throughout her career she was, among other things, a major star of musical plays. This CD comes from one such -- and from 1974, arguably the peak of her career prime. It is also the last composed by her late husband, Aasi Rahbani.
