''Yemenite Songs'' a.k.a. ''Shirey Teyman'' (Hebrew: שירי תימן) is a 1987 album by Ofra Haza, in which the Israeli pop star returned to her roots interpreting traditional Yemeni Jewish songs with lyrics coming from the poetry of 16th century Rabbi Shalom Shabazi. The album was recorded with both traditional and modern musical instruments; wooden and metal percussion, Yemenite tin and tambala, strings, brass and woodwind as well as drum machines and synthesizers. The songs are sung in Hebrew with a Yemenite dialect and in Arabic. The opening song "Im Nin' Alu"'s a cappella intro would eventually become the starting point of Haza's international career as it was sampled by a number of European and American rap and dance acts like Eric B. & Rakim on their "Paid In Full" and M|A|R|R|S on "Pump Up the Volume" which led to Haza releasing a dance remix of her own recording in 1988 (subtitled ''Played In Full'') which became a pop chart hit in many parts of the world. Remixes of both "Im Nin' Alu" and "Galbi" were included on the first international album ''Shaday''. The ''Yemenite Songs'' album has also been released under the title ''Fifty Gates of Wisdom''. ==Track listing== Side A: #"Im Nin 'Alu" (Shabazi) - 5:18 #"Yachilvi Veyachali" (Shabazi) - 3:27 #"A 'Salk" (Shabazi, Traditional) - 4:45 #"Tzur Mentati"/"Se'i Yona"/"Sapri Tama" (Ben-Amram, Shabazi, Traditional) - 5:44 Side B: #"Galbi" (Amram, Shabazi) 4:14 #"Ode Le-Eli" (Shabazi, Traditional) - 3:31 #"Lefelach Harimon" (Shabazi, Traditional) 5:08 #"Ayelet Chen" (Shabazi) - 6:30 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Yemenite Songs」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
