Sacred Ceremonies

Wadada Leo Smith will turn 80 later this year, and to celebrate, Tum Records are releasing two deluxe 3-CD box sets. Three CDs with their own carton sleeves and an inner sleeve with a 50 page booklet. Sacred Ceremonies represents a meeting of three true masters of creative music. On this three-CD boxed set trumpet legend Wadada Leo Smith joins forces with the ever-versatile electric bassist Bill Laswell and the late, great master drummer Milford Graves in three separate sessions. The boxed set comprises a duo CD of Wadada Leo Smith with Milford Graves, a duo CD of Wadada Leo Smith with Bill Laswell and a trio CD of Wadada Leo Smith with both Bill Laswell and Milford Graves.
