Assalamo allikum. I went for umrah in rabiul awal with my family. In the first prayer lead by sheikh saleh al talib I was uniquely attracted and amazed by the clarity, power, quality and emotions of recitation. I wanted for next prayer. In third I had tears flowing. I inquired about his name. I searched his DVD could not get. Allah Almighty creats some people blessed, they live blessed , they meet their ALLAH with blessed status. I believe sheikh saleh al talib is one of them. I haven't listened any better reciter of Quran. The other sheikh of same emotions is salah al budair. Now I wait when sheikh saleh comes in TV leading the prayers. It takes me to haram. May ALLAH Almighty Bless him. Give him long life. Give us many chances to say prayers when he leads. Grant him jannah al firdous al aala and also us.

Sheikh Saleh Al Taleb is one of my favorite reciters. His recitation has some resemblance with Sheikh Saud Shuraim but the pitch of his voice makes him unique. I became the admirer of his recitation style when I heard him first time on the TV leading a prayer in Harm. I wish we had recording of full Quran recited by him. I think he leads most number of prayers in Harm than any other Imam. Isha prayer during entire Ramzan is always assigned to him.
Assalam,
