Good tape from a band that was extremely popular in Ethiopia in the '80s.
Started out playing just hotels like the
Hilton, but when the bands
Dahlak
and
Ibex broke up due to some of their members leaving for the US and Sudan,
these guys filled the void by later playing for all kinds of famous singers/performers.
The cassette features early instrumental versions of tunes from people like
Aster Aweke,
Tekle Tesfazgi, and the godfather of this style,
Mahmoud Ahmed.
