Alemayehu Eshete - Ethiopiques, Vol. 9 Music CD

Lèmayèhu Eshètè : a singer as remarkable for his frenetic rock numbers as for his heartrending ballads. He earned himsef such nicknames as The Ethiopian James Brown or the Abyssinian Elvis. With his dazzling stage presence, nimble voicebox and wicked pompadour, he is a strutting show-off, straight out of American Graffiti or Saturday Night Fever. Alèmayèhu still represents the explosive myths of the 60s.
