Professional Reviews
Dirty Linen (Dec./Jan. 92-93, p.70) - "...her Yemenite/Israeli roots shine through a high-tech contemporary production, never straying too far from home...may this be the beginning of the next era in the world fusion of music..."

Option (Jan/Feb 93, p.94) - "...a couple of the dance tunes here are given almost hip-hop treatment....may be Haza's best record to date...."
