5.0 out of 5 stars intense, wild and spacey
more great Omar. Some very spacey (don't drive with this tape) pieces, and some very wild ones! BOILING WATER is totally awesome, I did a belly dance improv to it the other night, very high energy, humorous, lots of fun. Look at Rumi's poem CHICKPEA TO COOK, page 132 of THE ESSENTIAL RUMI, and you will see the same intensity as the song. They go very well together. It...

2.0 out of 5 stars Not Omar Faruk Tekbilek's best work, December 30, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Fata Morgana (Audio CD)
Unlike the brilliant "Beyond the Sky", "Firedance", or "Mystical Garden" which are undeniably great works of art with great compositions, playing, and a great production sound, this CD meanders around with occasionally inspired improvisation, but no real focus or finesse. If you already own all of Tekbilek's good CD's ( including "Whirling" and "Crescent Moon" ),and want to collect everything he has done, then check this out, otherwise, save your money and buy one of the other CDs I've just mentioned. You won't be sorry.

It really does sound like boiling water, as if you are inside the pot! too much! Omar's music gave me the nerve to dance in public in the first place because it just inspires me to move, won't let me stay still!
