The African Nubian Suite by Randy Weston.

[Hardbopjazz]

I'm a big fan of all Randy's music. This one is scheduled for release later this year. He's 90 years old and there's no slowing him down. It is a double cd too.

Is this being released as a download only? Doesn't specify on the CD Baby page.

Right below the title there is written: 

CD $25.00

Doh! 

My bad.

I am going to give this a listen tonight. Anyone else get their copy?

[JSngry]

Mine came Saturday. It is opened but not yet listened to.

Disc 2, I could do without the vocal tracks.

Weston is very good at storytelling. If you ever see him live you would pick up on this. It's evident in the release.

I've already ordered a second copy because I carelessly spilled water on a table where the album was, with unsightly results. But it's a good record, yeah.
