This actually looks like it might be a good series. As I mentioned on he Oum Kalthoum thread, I was that I was unfamiliar with the recommended recording under her name in the world music guide, and I was happy that it was from the 30s, rather than the usual recommendations like

There's one for popular standards that I might take a look at.
