[HANASHIR:11222] Yet Another Question Re: "Hallelu's" Authorship

[Jeff Klepper <jeffklepper...>]

As we have discussed, the 'hit' song "Hallelu" seems to have been based
(partially) on 'Alah Hoo' by the late Nusrat Fata Ali Kahn.  The B'nei
Jeshurun CD credits it: "as interpreted by Sheva."  But does anyone know for
sure if it was the Israeli group "Sheva" that first adapted it?  Does it
appear on any CDs by Sheva?  If so, is Moshe Ben Ari given credit?  In other
words: does the song have a single composer?

Thanks and good yontif,
Jeff
