Toranj (album)

Toranj was singer-songwriter Mohsen Namjoo's official debut in 2007, as none of his previous albums were allowed for legal release by Iranian governmental authorities.[1] Also it was the last album of the artist to get legal license.[2][3][4] The album featured nine traditional folk songs, including poems from Hafez, Rumi, Baba Taher and Attar.[5][6][7][8][9]

gollark: It actually seems like the whole setup handling them is deliberately byzantine and overcomplicated to stop this sort of thing.
gollark: I am annoyed by how hard Amazon makes it to get the ebooks I bought (realistically, bought a license to legally) out of their walled garden and onto Calibre in some sort of actually standard format. Apparently I can't get any sort of usable files off the Android app, and I've lost my actual Kindle hardware, so I've had to download some ancient version of their Windows client and run it in Wine.
