Volume 3: Further in Time is the third studio album from Afro Celt Sound System, released on 19 June 2001 through Real World.[1]
Background
[edit | edit source]The album features N'Faly Kouyate in a more prominent role as a main contributor, a deliberate choice, as James McNally explained: "We felt the last album's African element wasn't as strong as it could have been. N'Faly had become a new member, and that was his first album. This time, he's much closer to the way we work and brought much more to the table than we could have ever imagined."[2]
Release
[edit | edit source]A video clip for the official single "When You're Falling" with an appearance of Peter Gabriel was directed by Adam Berg and released in July 2001.[2] The single contains a dance-oriented remix by Adam Wren of Leftfield and Dom Morley. After the single had received worldwide attention, the song "Life Begin Again" was made available as promotional single in 2002.[5]
Real World issued a limited edition version of the album with an additional CD that contains a remix of the song "Eireann" from the predecessor album and a live version of the track "Mandrake". This edition was sold exclusively through retailer Borders.[2] Afro Celt Sound System made the whole album available for streaming on their website.
