One of the most stunning and unique albums of the Ethiopian golden age of jazz, never reissued in full until now. This album was the only LP released by the mysterious Aselefech Ashine and Getenesh Kebret, two young women backed by one of the hardest-charging jazz and funk bands of the Ethiopian scene. The record was a huge hit in Ethiopia back in 1976, but the artists never released another album. Finally this record sees a well-deserved reissue.
