Ethio-jazz hero Mulatu Astake and His Ethiopian Quintet "Afro-Latin Soul" album from 1966! As the title suggest this is more leaning towards the Latin-soul jazz sound. Beautiful vibes, piano, and drumming from Mulatu with stirring haunting melodies. Recommended!

One of the all-time best 'modal' jazz albums! A bona fide classic that every jazz fan should own! Highly recommended!
