Ethiopiques Vol. 3 - The Golden Years of Modern Ethiopian Music



















Some of the most funky foreign music I have ever heard. Just put "Lomiwen Tèqèbèlètch" on and you will know what I'm talking about. All the makings of a good funk jam are there - tight horn arrangments, driving bass lines, and amazing guitar riffs. But what makes this shit crazy it that is does all of this with some of the craziest melody lines I have ever heard. Coming soon to a RZA beat near you...

...but, seriously, this shit will definately satisfy your inner crate-digger.

I have Volumes 1-5 of this series, which I could post more of if people are fiending for this. Just drop a comment.

I have volumes 1 and 14. I'm particularly in love with "Tezeta" from Volume 4. I'm planning to collect the whole series eventually.
