And why am I uploading a seven year old album? You may well ask, simple answer is I've just "found" it. Once you've heard this guy you'll understand why, for the superlative "awesome" is apt. Not only does he play the oud like a corporeal angel he sings like a Devine One; imagine Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan(rip)and then some, you think Dame Janet baker shows range Dhafer'll show you a whole prairie. From screaming Millenium Falcon to ruptured yak at warp speed.
I did manage to eBay a more recent album "Prophecy" on the Swedish Enja lable and it sounds like some bjorn bjerks have done an Enya on him; strange as the Swedes are usually as fastidious about their jazz as they are their furniture and fighter-plane design - hence EST below.
If this isn't your usual cup of tea it is worth staying with at least till tracks three and four. Or maybe break yourself in with Avishai Cohen and his jazz oudist first off, to get your ear in, and then prepare yourself for the added vocal onslaught of Dhafer Youssef.

On the whole very good sounding files I have had to clean them up a bit though so you will spot at least one glitch.
