The Atlantic Sound...Celebrating Arif Mardin tonight in Ahmet's House

Music...all beautiful, all valued. But a Sound! When a band defines a unique sound...think Yes, or CSN...it distinguishes them among their peers. But an entire Label?

Come journey with us as his son Joe shares a conversation with Tony tonight in Ahmet's House. Music provided exclusively by this wonderful documentary soundtrack.
