“Iran” was the first Muslimgauze recording to be released on CD in 1988 on Dutch label Staalplaat. “Iran” was the label"s first CD release, and signaled the start of the label’s transition away from the cassette format. After one Soleilmoon reissue "Iran" went out of print in 1998. For this reissue the CD packaging has been completely redesigned. The original print films were converted into digital files so that the photographs could be reused, but the essay “Breien Met Mist / Zonder Handleiding” (Knitting With Fog / Without Manual) written in Dutch by Andrew McKenzie of The Hafler Trio, was deleted, allowing us to put full emphasis on the presentation of the images. The new package is printed entirely on high quality heavyweight papers, and is a work of art in its own right, rivaling the music recorded on the CD it’s designed to hold. A sturdy slipcover pocket holds a black-and-white four-page booklet together with a CD slipcase made with scented, metallic gold paper.Released July 21st 2010 on Soleilmoon.Track List:1 Lion Of Kandahar (Extended Re-Mix) 10:29 2 Qom (Short Version) 6:15 3 Intifadah (Extended Re-Mix) 17:11
