2014 vinyl LP pressing of the first Yusuf album since 2009's acclaimed 'Roadsinger'. Recorded all over the world, including Los Angeles, Dubai, Brussels, and London, the album features 10 brand-new studio recordings, including five originals and five carefully-chosen cover songs. 'Tell 'Em I'm Gone' features musical contributions from Richard Thompson, blues harmonica legend Charlie Musselwhite, singer-songwriter Bonnie 'Prince' Billy, Tuareg group Tinariwen, and guitarist Matt Sweeney, as well as production from Rick Rubin. Each track is threaded together by the themes of freedom and peace that have prevailed through more than four decades of Yusuf's musical career. On this album, Yusuf returns to the roots of his musical inspiration: American blues and R&B, using these genres to explore the universality of the desire for freedom with songs that recall the spirit of his earliest days as a nascent singer-songwriter in London.
