5.0 out of 5 stars A Grand Debut For Shahin & Sepehr!, February 3, 2005

By

This review is from: One Thousand & One Nights (Audio CD)

Shahin & Sepehr are an Iranian duo living in Washington,D.C..Shahin Shahida plays guitar while Sepehr Haddad plays on keyboards.Joined and aided on this album by their small studio band as well as by Craig Dobbins from the then recently formed 3rd Force group,the album is beautifully crafted with great musical compositions that may not be complicated,but are still thoroughly enjoyable.You might find yourself humming these tracks after a while,because this album is,like I said before,full of great melodies and tunes.There isn't a single track that you would want to skip.The album's sound is a combination of Middle-Eastern sounds with a western rhythm,with half of the album,the first 5 tracks or so,consisting of upbeat and energetic tunes,while the latter half consists of,appropriately,more mellow and softer pieces.Highlights on the album include,"One Thousand & One Nights","Yasmine","Middle Of The Night","Mediterranean Dream","Cuban Skies","Body & Soul",and the beautiful "Natasha".Heck,the whole album is a highlight,which is an impressive feat,especially for a debut album like this one.Definitely a must-buy for collectors of New Age and Contemporary Instrumental.Highly Recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Have Album, April 30, 2004

By 

Drexel Pitts (Lizella, GA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: One Thousand & One Nights (Audio CD)

This album is Shahin & Sepehr's best. It is hard to classify as to style. Their work is a wonderful mixture of Jazz, Guitar, World and New Age. All instrumentals, the songs are varied, vibrant and lively. You can't turn it on and forget it. I'd recommend any of their albums, but this is their best. It's one of my top 5 modern instrumental CDs., maybe number 1...
