haha, thanx for the kind words (how long were you here btw?)

sadly, tho i recognize the compositions I do not know who is playing, I even recruited the editor of Ethiopiques to ask his opinion and no luck.

will check with a musician friend to see if I can get an answer for you

Thanks H!
that's really great you checked with Buda people - Wow!

I was there a couple of times back inna the day....
this tape i picked up because i heard this glorious sound coming out of a bar in Axum, Adwa, Harar or somewhere (can't rememeber exacly) & requested a copy...

these days i know a few habash in london - they all say they know these tunes...
"Yeah, Yeah, i kno dat one...: it's ...er... 'Classical' innit?!?!!"

i still got one mate whose a musician to try... it's more tricky without lyric tho!!

another Q: can you recommend more similar????

tanx again H you star!
