Farhad Mehran – The Fifth String (1970) | Persian Full Album

☕ Support Lost Wax Instrumental: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?busine... *FARHAD MEHRAN — THE FIFTH STRING (1970)* Full Album Nine instrumental pieces recorded around the sound of the santur — moving from intimate Persian tradition into the strange possibilities of a late-night Tehran studio. The Fifth String begins with santur, setar, ney and tombak at the center of the music. As the record unfolds, electric bass, organ and occasional guitar slowly enter the sessions, creating an unusual meeting between traditional Persian instrumentation and the experimental sounds of the early 1970s. *Tracklist* 00:00 — The Fifth String 03:13 — Four in the Afternoon 04:35 — Shirin's Window 07:24 — Seven Steps 10:11 — The Empty Chair 13:14 — Studio No. 3 16:47 — Two Mallets, One Wire 19:41 — Tehran, 5:17 A.M. 23:15 — Before They Turned Off the Tape Part of the *Lost Wax Society* collection — a fictional archive inspired by obscure recordings, forgotten sounds and imaginary albums from another time. 🎧 Best experienced from beginning to end. *LOST WAX SOCIETY* Obscure Recordings • Lost Albums • Forgotten Sounds LWS-009 #FarhadMehran #TheFifthString #LostWaxSociety #PersianPsychedelia #Santur #PsychedelicMusic #FullAlbum
