1	Shaday (1988) more music like this by Ofra Haza add to wishlist This CD made Haza a household name throughout Europe because it was her first to sell millions of copies there, earning her the nickname "the Israeli Madonna." She combines Hebrew, Yemenite, and English in prayers and original compositions with a driving European dance beat. Included is the international hits "Im Nin Alu" and "Galbi" (later made ... see all copies from $2.49! new only from $2.49!
2	Su (2005) more music like this by Mercan Dede add to wishlist "Su" is the Turkish word for "water," and water is the theme that unifies all of the tracks on this strange and deeply beautiful album. Featuring musical elements and guest musicians from India, Iran, the Balkans, Mediterranean Europe and Britain, as well as Mercan Dede's native Turkey, Su draws on Sufi mysticism for its symbolism and on just ... see all copies from $6.89! new only from $11.29!
3	Street Signs (2004) more music like this by Ozomatli add to wishlist Los Angeles-based Ozomatli are a new kind of American band, a band reflecting the multiracial and multicultural One World demographics of the 21st century. Drawing on musical sources as diverse as salsa, hip-hop, rock, jazz, funk, Tejano, and reggae, Ozomatli appear to be trying to be all things to all people, but amazingly, they pull it off more ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $6.00!
4	Coming Up [EP] (2003) more music like this by Ozomatli add to wishlist see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
5	Bellydance Superstars [Ark 21] (2002) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist The first thing to do with this is ignore the title. Whether the belly dancers who picked these tracks are superstars or not is unknown -- but they have good taste in Middle Eastern music. There are four cuts from the Mondo Melodia stable (by Oojami, with the band's four-on-the-floor Turkish club mix, and three sha'bi selections from Hakim -- all ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $11.93!
6	Yaho (2000) more music like this by Hakim add to wishlist Egyptian superstar Hakim's U.S. debut transcends its homeland roots by enlisting Trans-Global Underground to remix several of its key tracks. Yaho never quite sheds the usual world trappings (foreign instrumentation, anomalous verbal inflections, non-English lyrics), but its willingness to pump up the volume in surprising places keeps it from ... see all copies from $4.72! new only from $9.54!
7	Ah W Noss (2004) more music like this by Nancy Ajram add to wishlist see all copies from $5.25! new only from $8.33!
8	Elysium for the Brave (2006) more music like this by Azam Ali add to wishlist Beginning in the late '90s as half of the duo Vas (with percussionist Greg Ellis), one-third of the group Niyaz (with Loga Ramin Torkian and Carmen Rizzo), and on her own, Azam Ali quietly established a reputation as one of the purest, most captivating voices in world music. But Elysium for the Brave elevates Ali to a whole other level. The second ... see all copies from $11.58! new only from $11.58!
9	Putumayo Presents: Turkish Groove (2006) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist An excellent compilation of contemporary Turkish pop, this album shows off the fusion of old and new that typifies Turkey itself, as well as its music scene. Much of the fare here is simple catchy pop, but with elements of more classical forms and influences from around both Europe and Central Asia. The mix of electronic instrumentation and the ... see all copies from $9.30! new only from $9.30!
10	Ewa! (2001) more music like this by Seba add to wishlist Imagine a place where musicians of Arabic descent listen to everything from Middle Eastern singers to hip-hoppers who rap in French -- a place where young Arabs hold Destiny's Child and Cheb Mami in equally high regard. This place is called Paris. France's largest city is quite a melting pot, and you could write a book about all of the Arabic ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
11	Sufi Traveler (2004) more music like this by Mercan Dede add to wishlist see all copies from $4.99! new only from $9.99!
12	Harem [Bonus DVD] (2003) more music like this by Sarah Brightman add to wishlist Adopting a Middle Eastern flavor to enhance her blend of classical and new age pop, Sarah Brightman's Harem continues her experimentation with thematic discs that began with 1993's oceanic Dive. These themes, while never dominant or original, are simply meant to enhance her brand of crossover just enough to keep listeners interested in hearing her ... see all copies from $20.62! new only from $20.62!
13	Putumayo Presents: Sahara Lounge (2004) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist As its evocative title suggests, Sahara Lounge is a crossroads of cultural communication and sonic exploration. Its geographical range spans from Morocco and Iran to the U.K. and America, but its guiding principal is to interweave traditional instrumentation and grooves with the tools of modern electronica. Just as electronic music draws freely on ... see all copies from $7.51! new only from $10.44!
14	Central Asian Series, Vol. 6: Spiritual Music of Azerbaijan (2007) more music like this by Alim Qasimov & Fargana add to wishlist see all copies from $17.41! new only from $17.41!
15	Legendary Fairuz (1998) more music like this by Fairuz add to wishlist 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. ~ Stephen Thomas ... see all copies from $9.91! new only from $9.91!
16	Grand Compositeurs, Vol. 2: Arabian Masters (2001) more music like this by Oum Kalsoum add to wishlist see all copies from $3.29! new only from $3.29!
17	As Far As: A DJ Mix (2003) more music like this by DJ Cheb I Sabbah add to wishlist As Far As: A DJ Mix is the first mix-tape from the semi-elusive DJ Cheb I Sabbah. The basic concept is to explore a full range of music from around the world. A basic bit of beat juggling is used for the transitions, but other than that, the music is largely untouched by Sabbah. There are a couple of remixes here, as DJ Cheb retouches bits from ... see all copies from $2.99! new only from $13.74!
18	Greatest Hits (2005) more music like this by Amr Diab add to wishlist see all copies from $6.95! new only from $9.99!
19	Putumayo Presents: North African Groove (2005) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Putumayo has put together a collection of polished North African pop music here that will appeal to fans of worldbeat with an ear for exotic African and Middle Eastern fusions and an eye on the dancefloor. Algeria has one of the most active and accessible music scenes in the region and it's no surprise that the small nation is well represented ... see all copies from $9.47! new only from $12.57!
20	Egypt (2004) more music like this by Youssou N'Dour add to wishlist Youssou N'Dour's Egypt is a radical change of pace for the Senegalese singer/songwriter. Throughout his career, N'Dour has adapted his indigenous musical heritage to the pop sounds of world music. On Egypt, N'Dour and his quartet have created rhythmic and melodic arrangements for material from the Arabic world. Joining N'Dour's quartet for this ... see all copies from $12.72! new only from $12.72!
21	Best of George Abdo and His Flames of Araby Orchestra (2002) more music like this by George Abdo add to wishlist Kitsch? Well yes, it is. But apart from being a lot of fun, there's a lot to be learned from this CD. A compilation of what George Abdo and his men did, ostensibly for the belly dancing circuit, although more popular among immigrants from around the Mediterranean and Middle East, it's an object lesson in how a new land changes music. They adapted ... see all copies from $15.49! new only from $15.49!

25	The Classics (2001) more music like this by Om Kalsoum add to wishlist Om Kalsoum had one of the great voices of the 20th century, which is one of the reasons why she is so revered in the world of Arabic music. Of course, with an artist so prolific, a "Classics" collection is going to be somewhat arbitrary, but The Classics is an excellent collection culled from the vaults of EMI Arabia. Kalsoum is backed by a ... see all copies from $24.13! new only from $24.13!
