I think this LP may be a follow-up to Ozel Turkbas's album titled How To Make Your Husband A Sultan. The album sparked a resurgence for belly dance in the early 1970s and sold 150,000 copies in the U.S. An "instruction" booklet that was apparently included with both albums.

  2. Belly dancing has often been marketed and sold to the Western public as frivolous, tantalizing and light-hearted dance entertainment.
