Biography
Tihm
Real name: Fathima Ben Said
Effective period / Period of releases: 1969 - 1973
Tihm was short for Fathima – or Fathima Ben Said, to be exact. She was born in 1950 and of Italian and Arabic heritage. Early publicity hailed her – perhaps a little hopefully – as a cross between Italy’s own Mina and US soul star Aretha Franklin. Between late 1968 and 1973, she issued eight 45s and an album.
