Joseph Jarman & Famoudou Don Moye- Black Paladins

Label: Dead Currencies

Reissued 7/10/2026, Originally released 1979

From the original 1979 Black Saint Label vinyl masters of the under-appreciated avant-jazz masterpiece from members of The Art Ensemble of Chicago. This first-of-its-kind American reissue of the Joseph Jarman & Famoudou Don Moye experimental jazz release from the Dead Currencies Label is hand-packaged & numbered, featuring updated album art, special inserts, a silver metallic screen-printed lower spine wrap, and "Black Smoke" color swirl vinyl LP. Allmusic called it “the Jarman/Moye duo's most successful effort, and one of the most rewarding projects either was involved with outside of the Art Ensemble. A delicious recording. 4-1/2 stars.”
