Faruq Z. Bey

Atlan-Tan Suite (CD)

Tracked express shipping from Italy, no customs or import VAT in the EU. Shipping costs

After decades in the vault, Entropy Stereo has unearthed one of the most unique and obscure Faruq Z. Bey recordings for you. It was Faruq's dying wish that these recordings become available. We are pleased to present Faruq Z. Bey's Atlan-Tan Suite featuring Faruq Z. Bey on saxophone, Jaribu Shahid on bass, Tony Holland on saxophone, Marlene Rice and Gwen Laster on violins, and Robert Allison on vibes. Meticulously recorded by Ron Decorte and mastered by Warn Defever. We made this live document available as a compact disc so as to not break up the flow of the suite. This rare event took place at the Detroit Institute of Arts and includes tracks never before released with a drummerless ensemble. Limited to 500 copies.
