He was quoted recently by BBC's 'The World' as saying, "When I hear George Bush, and when I hear Osama bin Laden, I hear two bedouin nomads. The only difference he says, is that one of them is from the desert of Texas and drives an SUV, and the other is from the desert of Saudi Arabia and rides a dromedary." Taha says Bush and bin Laden come from similar well-heeled backgrounds. And both, he says, use a similar fundamentalist rhetoric. <p>Downloads for this album are only available in the U.S.Tue, 06 Jan 2009 13:43:09 -0600http://rachidtaha.brazilmaxmusic.com/#album_1618<img src='http://files.brazilmaxmusic.com/images/1594/made_in_medina.jpg'>Rachid Taha might be in his 40s, but he's still fueled by anger. His fire is all to evident on his new album, 'Made in Medina'. "It's a rock album," Taha says, "I like rock, I like the feel of it, the feel of punk, and it works well with North African music." The album also features a duet with Femi Kuti. <p>Downloads for this album are only available in the U.S.Tue, 06 Jan 2009 13:43:09 -0600http://rachidtaha.brazilmaxmusic.com/#album_1594
