I have four of The Egyptian Lover CD's, this is the third. This CD is midway because it only has eight tracks, which is relatively short. Out of these eight tracks, only five are considered his best work, yet can be found with a slightly remixed tone on each of the other CD's. The Egyptian Lover "On the Nile" is true to his form and the music is boomin'.

I am an Avid fan of the egyptian lover. This album is probably hs best work to date. The classic single "egypt, egypt" is well known and "you're so fine" delivers an energy like no other, and I still play his releases today in my nightclub. The crowd goes absolutly wild. I strongly recommend this album to anyone who like s the old school west coast music.

This is early stage techno / dance / purple rain influenced / Kraftwerk sound but still E.L. is unique unto his own style. I love it, but it may be too slow for some folks - really only 3 good songs on here. But you can't download it anywhere (My House ON The Nile) so you have to buy the CD. If you have any questions about it shoot me an email. It's a must in your "Old School" library. I tried to find out what happened to E.L. but not much info after 1993...

Word, this is a 'Rab that rocks, baybee. By far the best CD in my collection, E.L. rocks the house, whether you be Muslims, Jews, Christians, Hindus, whatevee, the Egyptian Lover caters to all grooves, funks, tastes, and rhymes. Funkadelic not awful, like Pita on Falafel! Buy this CD, word to the Sahara!
