Genre: International, Ethiopian

2011 two CD collection. The 27-volume Éthiopiques series introduced the unique sounds of post-war Ethiopian Soul, Jazz and big bands to a grateful wider world. This collection takes 28 of the very best cuts from that series to form a unique document of this incredibly soulful, otherworldly and hypnotic music. Do yourself a favor and discover the Ethiopian R&B counterparts to James Brown, Elvis Presley and Jackie Wilson but also Jazz composers, choral groups, Folk minstrels and bluesmen with the power and wildness of Bukka White or Son House, or contemplative piano music that might suggest Bill Evans or Maurice Ravel for a moment, but is really from a strange and wonderful place of it's own... Elvis Costello. Metro Select.
