Salim Halali  (who was born in Algeria) belonged to the same generation as that other Jewish pop star, Sami al-Maghribi. Much of his life was spent at the ‘Coq D’or’ in Casablanca , a famous oriental music hall in the old Medina popular with visitors, where he nurtured a whole school of pop stars such as Hajja Hamdaouya, Omar Tantaoui and Latifa Amal.

Salim Halali was known by his unique voice and performance

he loved art and was a big collector of vintage!

my favorite singer Zohar Argov who past away on 1987 from drugs addiction.

was very impressed by Salim Halali and gain much of his style and put it in to modern mizrahit music.

that was actually the Beginning  of this music that raised from the synagogue and created from different styles of praying from all kind of Sephardic Jewish over the world

i wish you will have pleasant listening and don’t forget the name of the humble artist salim halali that even after his dead stay anonymous to the media with what ever come to his personal life.

Hi
I want to share a special event that i had the honor to take part in.

On April 29 2012 15 thousand Jews and none Jews people came to rancho park to celebrate state of Israel independent day and the 64 birthday of my country.

In that program that was host by the ILC.

I had the chance to warm up my favorite singer and an amazing person
The greatest EYAL GOLAN.

That came all the way from Israel.

I was chosen to warm up eyal golan on that day. And it took me
10 years back to an apartment in REHOVOT ISRAEL.

To a private party that was happening at eyal golan friend house.

I remember my friend AVI STAHINER that was playing keyboard for me as an new and beginner singer I just started my way.

And his word was : Yakir there is a private part going on and I can get you in. You just need to carry my tools means his heavy keyboard.

I said off course I’ll do it.

And the night began we got to an apartment there was just 2 people there its was around 21:00 and then people start to Come slowly with some drinks and food.

And then from the hallway I see EYAL GOLAN image coming in my way he was companied by his friend BENY PERETZ a big real estate developer.
And Israel famous model ILANIT LEVI
that just got her title that year

After a year from that day they got merried and then divorced 😦

LONG STORY SHORT:

The night started 30 people arrived to the party and we all set on the floor on pillows

Like Arabian night style!

And then slowly by slowly the music start to play my talented friend Avi put his fingers on the keyboard and music start to fill up the room.

And the dream is start I’m all high from just adjusting to the fact that Im in the same room with those cool young and beautiful peoples

EYAL took the mic and his voice start to fill up the room with softness and the atmosphere start to change room

All of a sudden EYAL notice me standing on the side try my best to look cool.

And he was calling me and told me to sit by his side. On the pillow

I was in shock but I played it nice.

He start to sing and then he pass the mic to me.

And I was singing oh boy I was singing.

Eyal smiled and let me fill like I’m the king and he is my fan.

This is a moment I took with me from then and on.

So the party was going till 5 in the morning

And I enjoyed every min of it. I could do it forever!

I thank eyal and he was acting like something else such a unique person.

The day after my friend AVI called me and told me I have a surprise for you.

I was so happy I listen to that and it was to all night on a cd.

Me and eyal golan singing.

So I could take this night with me everywhere I went.

That was on sep 2001

The year I left Israel to America

After 6 years Me and eyal golan meeting in Los Angeles on the same stage

I’m siting at the VIP room and eyal is coming in

He see me and hugs me and asked me Are you Still here?

I told him YES! Why do you remember me?

And I told me off course yakir you a friend of AVI

And I remember our recording from that night.
