and ofcource you can get some Mulatu vinyl’s

The vinyl’s are out of print. If you are desperate of getting some, you may have to go to somali terra, that is if your luck strikes. Music shop owners may have some, but I doubt it if they will be willing to sell. Other venue would be to check with elder relatives and associates, specially with those back home. Good luck to you.

Ras Band trumpeter Zewdu Legesse was forced to quit playing trumpet after he was bit by a bee. He lost control of his lip due to damage done to the nerves. He then become a music teacher and taught till the last day of his life. He passed away sometime in late seventees or early eightees.

Girma Beyene is to Ethiopian music as is Quincy Jones to American. Anything they touch turns into gold. They both are miracle workers. unfortunately, Girma shine away from the music scene for some unknown reason. we hope to see him surface again.

I came accross this web site recently. I would like to share some known facts with those who would be interested. Enigenagnalen was first sung by Girma Negash while he was a memebr of the HHI theatre, currently known as Biherawi Theatre. All others came to sing the song after then.
