Qu'Ran - Brian Eno and David Byrne

4 months ago
88

This album's 2006 release expurgated this track because of its sample of Algerian Muslims chanting a section of the Qu'ran has offended some idiots in the Muslim community.
This track was initially used in early prints of Blade Runner. (The Eno/Byrne album came out in '81, and BR was shooting in '81.) There are in fact bootlegs of the film with this song used. However, just prior to wide general release, Ridley Scott replaced this song with "Tales of the Future" by Vangelis/Roussos and another never-released Vangelis/Roussos track.--greatprogtracks9473.
