Buddy Boldens Blues : Coming Through Slaugter (Michael Ondaatje) (1997)

Although Michael Ondaatje is named as main artist for this release, he has nothing to do with the music on it. The music on this release is the music for the theatre production of his book "Buddy Bolden's Blues", performed in the Schillertheater NRW in Wuppertal. Ondaatje is best known for his Booker Prize-winning novel, The English Patient, which was adapted into an Academy-Award-winning film.
