Could you remind me of the music that went with each piece? I think the slow piece was something like Saidi's Party... Thanks!

You should be able to see the L2 songs now; we used Saidi Party (a dub take-off of Ismaaouni from the Mazamir Sahara CD) and Abu Leila Dance Song from Music of the Fellahin.
