Just bought it! I was lucky to actually dance for Ibrahim Turmen and his band in Columbus for a private party years ago. I was so nervous because I had a huge crush on him.

Oh my gosh the SULTANS? I'm stoked that they are producing again. Their music was so wonderful! Thanks for the tip!

I'm not familiar with them, but am excited to hear that any of the older groups are putting out more stuff again! Not satisfied with newer stuff. Old stuff has all the right nuances and changes for a show because the older musicians knew how to play for dancers.

I hope they re-release all their old albums on CD. There was a lot of good music on those old vinyl records and cassette tapes!

So would you be willing to share all of your old Sultans tunes?

There's a special price on that site. You can buy the hard copy for the price of the download, just pay 3.00 for shipping.

In the Belly Dance Instructors Tribe there is a post about "Hot New CD" which is where I read about the CD. Askin is a tribe member but other than saying that I don't know how to tell you to get to him. There was a link from the post I mentioned which is how I purchased the CD. If you Google Askin and the Sultans you might get a good hit. He did start a Tribe called The Sultans which, I am sure, has the link to his website (if I were better with computers I would probably know a way to take a link from one tribe and share it with another, sorry that is not my area of expertise). Good luck!

Where do you buy the CD?

His tribe is just called "The Sultans", can't figure out if there is a link. Has anyone else noticed a weird line on a lot of posts that looks like a link? Does anyone know what that is?

Didn't find the Tribe, but here's his profile. It seems to be mostly about promo'ing the new release. http://people.tribe.net/0e284479-6f14-48fa-8ac1-0212b91b5be4

If any of you remember or have heard of this group, they are back in business. There is a new CD out called "Play your Cymbals" and I really love it. They also have a new tribe moderated by Askin. It is confusing when I tell my students about this music because when I say that it is the traditional style that I learned belly dance with it sounds like the music is old fashioned. That is not true. As soon as I started playing the CD I felt my body respond to the music just as it did to the original Sultan's albums (yes I still have them on vinyl except for one which I have on cassette tape, and all have been converted to digital and are in my iTunes library as well as transferred to CDs). Why not check them out?
