Eziz sheher (Əziz şəhər) - Rashid Behbudov - Baku photos

Rashid Behbudov (Ra-SHID BEH-bu-dov) was one of Azerbaijan's greatest singers. Rashid is remembered for his love songs - his melodic, lyrical love songs. He even managed to mesmerize officials so much with his beautiful rich tenor voice that they didn't pressure him to sing contrived songs to glorify the Soviet system or heroes like Stalin and Lenin. Maybe it was because officials, too, had their own love lives. Is it possible to prohibit love? http://azer.com/aiweb/categories/magazine/34_folder/34_articles/34_behbudov.html
