Reviews of Albums by EMAM & FRIENDS
Indian Dream: "This virtual United Nations of an ensemble has created some of the freshest, most entertaining and accessible World Fusion music ever! A must have!" PJ Birosik - Awareness Magazine Jan, 95
"Sacred Insanity is an uplifting, introspective fusion of jazz, rock and folk music with influences of Indian, Turkish, Spanish, and Eastern European cultures, and brings out many of the historical connections between them."
Dirty Linen Magazine - August/September 2000
"Sacred Insanity by Emam & Friends is an amazing stew of multi-ethnic instrumentalists and vocalists. Some great fusion drumming by Sivamani as well as Emam's tasty tabla and percussion."
David Licht - Modern Drummer (March 2000)
"Another fabulous fusion in world music comes from Emam & Friends on the new album Sacred Insanity, which blends contemporary acoustic music with styles from Iran, India, Europe and the U.S. using voice, percussion, acoustic guitar, cello, bansuri, oud, violin, drums, sax."
Dan Liss - Aquarius (Aug. 99)
Sacred Insanity: "Modern world beat music with heavenly chant and world Jazz flavors highlight this impressive release from Emam & Friends."
Musical Soundscapes - by Rev. Robert Walmsley

| Close your eyes and imagine a caravan of camels traveling in the desert, under the moonlight. The rhythm is a slow five groove on the drums, played by Steve Robertson, with a double time feel added with the Ghatam, played by Emam. It also features the cello of Moses Sedler, Oud by Gari Hegedus (AKA Gary Haggerty), bass by Kai Ekhardt, and the wonderful voice of Irina Mikhailova, which also gives it an Eastern European feel. This piece is composed by Emam. This is an edited version of the song. For the complete song, please buy the album! |

| A Middle Eastern song dedicated to our brothers and sisters who are living with the conflicts in their region and are in dire need of Peace. In a way, it is a request to all parties involved in the Middle East conflict: Peace Please! It features the amazing violin of Zoltan Lantos, percussion of Emam, and tabla of Naushad Ahmed. |

| A lullaby played on two nylon string guitars (by Emam) and a twelve string guitar (by Turkantam). The added sampled voices (by Farhad) give it a magical feel. This is a very new age sounding meditative piece. |
