The Legendary Fairuz (1997)

"Since the middle of the 20th century, the most famous living Arab singer and crown jewel of Lebanese music has been Fairuz (birth name Nuhad Haddad). She is world-renowned and has performed on all continents. She has been the voice of the Arab people - regardless of political affiliation - since she began working professionally as one of the young Lebanese artists to perform at the Baalbek International Festivals. "The Legendary Fairuz" contains five live performances she recorded in the '90s. All of the songs were written and arranged by the Rahbani Brothers, and they have given Fairuz a terrific showcase for her rich, warm voice. While other albums and compilations may be more representative, this nevertheless presents her at her best." (Allmusic)
