Dust to Gold (Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan album)

A qawwali album by Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, recorded in 1997 with his ensemble in traditional form and released posthumously by Real World in 2000, with four long pieces, among them 'Khawaja tum hi ho' and 'Noor-e-khuda hai husn-e-sarapa rasool'; critics heard a balance of improvisational freedom and control, though his voice showed strain.
