Badi Assad

We've got 1996 BMW Audiophile Demonstration Disc lying around the house. One of names on the cover is Badi Assad. I thought that would be a great handle, and was seriously thinking about adopting it as an alias, or the name of some tough guy for a story. "Look out! He's Badi Assad! Of course, I was pronouncing it the way it's spelled in English. Badi prounounces her (yes her) name Bah-Jee Ah-Sahj. Anyway, Badi is funky, and the folks who by her albums from Amazon seem to love her. I'm sure she's old news to all you hipsters, but, as you know, I'm behind the times.
