Shamek Farrah & Sonelius Smith
The World of the Children
Saxophonist Shamek Farrah’s second and final known album, The World of the Children, created with pianist Sonelius Smith, is a masterful work that solidifies his place as a legendary yet enigmatic figure in spiritual jazz. This release serves as a worthy follow-up to his debut album, First Impressions, which has become one of the most sought-after recordings in the genre, not just within the Strata-East catalog but across the entire spectrum of spiritual jazz. Little is known publicly about Farrah post-1980; however, his aura of mystery has captivated listeners around the world for the past 50 years. Now remastered from the original analog tapes, this rare and genre-defining album will be available in digital format for the first time ever.
