Recording and music


The album was recorded in October 1997.[2] Most of the material was composed by Harris.[1] For the album release, the tracks were connected with "short interludes to create an almost continuous suite".[2]


Release and reception


A Cloud of Red Dust was released by Blue Note Records.[2] The Penguin Guide to Jazz commented on Harris's "flowing lyricism, grafted onto a swinging shuffle beat, a combination of metres that is always threatening to fall apart but never quite does".[2] The AllMusic reviewer concluded: "As a whole, A Cloud of Red Dust offers a fine baseline from which to track Stefon Harris' development as perhaps the next great vibraphone stylist."[1]
