Description:

Ayalew Mesfin stands aside the likes of Mulatu Astake, Mahmoud Ahmed, Hailu Mergia and Alemayehu Eshete as a legend of 1970s Ethiopia. Mesfinâ??s music is some of the funkiest to arise from this unconquerable East African nation. Mesfinâ??s recording career, captured in nearly two dozen 7â? singles and numerous reel-to-reel tapes, shows the strata of the most fertile decade in Ethiopiaâ??s 20th century recording industry, when records were pressed constantly by both independent upstarts and corporate behemoths, even if they were only distributed within the confines of this East African nation. Though Mesfin was forced underground by the Derg regime that took control of Ethiopia in 1974, he has returned almost 50 years later with this triumphant set albums â?? the first time that his music has been presented in this form. These albums give us a chance to discover a rare and beautiful moment in music history, in anthologies built from Mesfinâ??s uber-rare 7â? single releases and from previously unreleased recordings taken from master tapes. Wegene gives us a chance to discover a rare & beautiful moment in music history, in an anthology built from his uber-rare 7â? single releases. Contains an oversized 11â? x 11â? 16 page book that tells the story of modern Ethiopian music and Mesfinâ??s role within it. - .. COUNTRYMAN) / METALLIC GREY VINYL
