Ohhh yes i do like to listen to Umm Kulthum singing...but always in the right frame of mind...
Went through a big stage of listening to her singing...sometimes she just hits the spot...
Driving through heavy traffic in a large tonnage truck the weather cold and grey with possibilty of rain...every other driver has a grudge against me for some strange reason i cannot work out...heaps of O/T worked long hours clocked up...it's nearly the end of the week...clothes dirty...feeling grimey...last drop the fork lift driver just a massive ao...that was 5 hours ago...not in a very good mood and starting to feel hungry...park near the Oasis Bakery 10 minute drive around till i can squeeze the truck into a spot...yes!!!!
Now i go in for some food just hope the boss does'nt ring me to inquire about my stop...cranky mood...not in the mood to explain my decisions...
Walk in through the door on a mission! Warm air wafts across my face...smells of fresh cooking food fill my nostrils...salivia works its magic across my tongue...and then i hear it...
I hear a woman singing over their sound system...stops my world for a second...it's so different to the music i am so used to listening...outer world harmonies...
I ask who is singing...it's Umm Kulthum...i see the cds for sale...
I check the menu...

My pleasure JG . I am happy when i share this album with youMan, thanks for this Beau! Gonna catch up on my Eddie South, who I've been aware of all these years, but have never acquired anything of. The first song was "La Rosita" too. I have a couple of recordings of that with Coleman Hawkins, one with him playing with Ben Webster. This version by South is fantastic.
