Yes, that is some mean tabla play, also known as goblet drum. In Arabic, it's also widely known as darbuka. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goblet_drum



Thank You for the info!

Judging from her accent, she is not a native speaker. I am 12 years late, but here is a translation of the Hebrew verse:

Get closer until
The world awakes
Rising and falling
We await a calling



As a native Hebrew speaker, I concur with the translation, as well as the vocalist not being a native Hebrew speaker herself.

This'll be Terry Hall from the Fun Boy 3? I wondered what happened to him. I'm not sure he goes right well on this number, which would be better without him - not that he's got a bad voice, just that it doesn't really fit in with the Middle Eastern feel. No' bad, though - 6 from the Nottingham jury.

Did I miss something here? Did this song's tempo change in the middle? It sounds like the rhythm section has hiccups.

The only thing worse than the music is the atrocious album cover -- they look like a jury. Or a police lineup!

The storm needs to take this guy & his belly dancer away quick!

Is this Janah re-badged? Same musical style and lead singer could be easily mistaken for the lead singer of Janah. There's no relation here, is there?

Indeed. The first few seconds were an '8', the rest, a '6'.

The first few seconds made me jump on here to see what Robert Plant was up to now... This is pretty killer, IMHO!
