Hi Julian,
ReplyDeleteregarding Osamu Shoji, do you have Shambala? I've been looking for that for a very long time. The cover art calls to me :-)
And while I'm asking, do you have Talisman by Mad Sheer Khan (guitarist/oud player/band leader from Rahmann)? I have tried about 6 times to contact the artist through his web page to ask about buying this either digitally or on cd, and he never replied. It's not available any more as far as I can tell...
Argh just came across this post and wanted to listen to the whole enchilada. Link is not working. any chance of a re-up? Thanks in advance.
