Recognized as the most popular living Lebanese artist, Fairuz’s career spans more than half a century.

Beginning in the late-‘40s and having released her most recent album within the last several years, Fairuz has been an unstoppable creative force in Lebanese music who has flitted back and forth between spiritual and secular music for the better part of her career.

While she has long found herself more comfortable in the spiritual, it’s her forays into a more secularized format that has resulted in some of the most recognizable Middle Eastern music to Western listeners.

Indeed, the primary draw to 1979’s Wahdon for such ears will be its B side, which incorporates Fairuz’s classic, decidedly-Eastern phrasing into a contemporary Western framework of disco and funk.
