First vinyl reissue of an absolute masterpiece of the Ethiopian groove scene - the swan song of swinging Addis: 'Muluken Melesse With The Dahlak Band'. The vinyl LP was at the heart of the 'Ethiopiques 31' compilation [tracks 2 to 11] and was one of the very last vinyl records ever released in Ethiopia. The album leaves a clear idea for posterity of the level of sophistication and mastery that modern Ethiopian music had achieved, before being crushed under the Stalino-military heel of the Derg - as the bloody revolution that was unfolding came to be called.
