5.0 out of 5 stars Authentic Ethiopian music composed with modern instruments., February 22, 2002
By 
Seife Yohannes (Hyatsville, MD USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Addis Ababa - New Beat Music From Ethiopia (Audio CD)
This is a great CD of Alemayehu's (the Ethiopian Elvis) greatest works of his seasoned musical career. The old authentic Ethiopian melodies are composed with mixed symphonyish, jazzy, rich musical extrvaganza. With his powerful bass voice, his vibrant and jubliant immersion in his performance is apparent in his songs. He offers his beatuful versions of Tizita and Ambassel (classis Ethiopian melodies). My favorite is however, Marign Biyeshalo with poetic rhymes ('Kodaye tegefo yihunilish chama'- peel my skin off and make a shoe out it for her). I recommend it to anyone who loves the original Ethiopian melodies and appreciates its composition with 21 century instruments.

PS: Watch out for the saxophone solos.
