The Big Mediterranean Collection 1990-2012. 2 CD Set (2012)

Number of CD(s) in package: 2

Mediterranean music has come a long way in Israel, from its position as a perceived culturally inferior "ethnic" neighborhood entertainment in the 1950s to its conquest of Israel's airwaves and arenas toward the end of the 1990s and beyond with superstars such as Eyal Golan, Sarit Hadad, Shlomi Shabat, Kobi Peretz, Zahava Ben and others.

This superb 2 CD package documents the last 2 decades of the evolution of Mediterranean and Mizrahi in Israel including 47 hits by every single notable artist and band in that entire time frame. It covers the critical dividing line when Mizrahi became huge.

This is an indespensible colleciton for any fan of Israeli or Mediterranean music!
