No no no fuck the instrumental stuff (j/k don't it's great, but still the vocal stuff is better) and get Volume 3 or Volume 13 and then work your way out from there.

Too late! I ordered Vol. 1 and 21 yesterday. I'll check out those others next...

yeah i sort of love all of the ethiopiques i've heard but as i've said before and will say again, vol. 8 is a rad intro (and has "hasabe"! - alayew mesfin is the fucking jam and i wish i could find more of his stuff), and vol. 9, the alemayehu eshete disc, is really one of my 50 favorite things ever. SO FUNKY, ROCKS SO HARD.

A very nice essay. First time I heard her, it felt like I'd known the music for a hundred years.
