@Tabbal @kcrw dear Maroun, this is so great. you never know when you write something if anybody will read it let alone have a personal memory. Samir was a smart, elegant human being, taken from us before retrovirals were available. Sad. thanks again. Tom

Remembering Samir Hachem and His Gift of Arabic Music kcrw.co/2EO7mUb Thanks @Tom_Schnabel for that Post. Samir called me the day before you co-hosted on #Fairouz 1987 found a tape I recorded off @kcrw. giving to my daughter for #Xmas.

@garthtrinidad nice hearing some jazz on your show. try "Remember" from Hank Mobley's album Soul Station. you will love it! best wishes for 2019!
