Asnake Gebreyes \"Ahadu\" is an overlooked Ethio Jazz classic. Originally released on cassette in 1988 through the Walia Music Shop in Addis Ababa, the album has not been available out of the country until now.
Lead track 'Weyene Ajir' (my mysterious brother) was a big hit on release and remains one of Asnake's best known songs.
Born in 1963, Singer Asnake Gebreyes released a series of sought-after cassette-only recordings in Addis Ababa in the 80s and has been working with French band UkanDanz for the past few years.
