Yusef Lateef: Eastern Sounds LTD version on vinyl LP in limited Remastered edition. This particular edition was published in Europe in publishing company WaxTime on 25. November 2022.

"Eastern Sounds" is a seminal album by the innovative jazz multi-instrumentalist Yusef Lateef, released in 1961. This album showcases Lateef's exploration of Middle Eastern and Asian music, blending these influences seamlessly with his jazz background to create a unique and exotic soundscape. The record features a mix of original compositions and interpretations, including tracks like "The Plum Blossom," where Lateef plays the Chinese xun (a globular flute), and "Blues For The Orient," which melds bluesy undertones with Eastern modalities. The album also contains evocative renditions of film scores such as "Love Theme From Spartacus" and "Love Theme From The Robe," highlighting Lateef's ability to infuse cinematic melodies with his distinctive sound. Other tracks like "Snafu" and "Purple Flower" further exhibit his skill in crafting compositions that are both intricate and emotionally resonant. With "The Three Faces Of Balal" and "Ching Miau," listeners are treated to an immersive auditory experience that transcends cultural boundaries, solidifying "Eastern Sounds" as a pioneering work in world jazz fusion.
