Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and Party - Live at WOMAD 1985 LP

This 1985 recording introduced Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan to the non-Pakistani world, with Nusrat and his nine-man "party" performing their trademark qawwali here without alterations for the Western market. They sing in Urdu, using religious and romantic texts drawn from the poetry of Sufiism, backed by droning harmonium and tabla. Stunning!
