    Superb super-super-rare unplayed Ethiopian ORIGINAL vinyl in original picture sleeve! A thing of great beauty!

    Awesome vocals of Mahmoud Ahmed and the killer Dahlack Band. 

    Ahmed is one of the legendary figures of the Ethiopian music scene, who rose from being a shoe-shine boy to handyman at the Arizona Club, after-hours hangout of Haile Selassie's classic Imperial Body Guard Band, where he got his first break as a singer. The Derg coup in 1974 led to the Ethiopian music going back underground after Selassie's earlier easing of restrictions.

    This Ethiopian record came out on Mahmoud Ahmed's own label in 1974. It is very rare!  Jazzy Ethio-soul gem!
