Mulatu Of Ethiopia is a groundbreaking album from Ethiopian jazz icon Mulatu Astatke, often hailed as the father of Ethio-jazz. Originally released in 1972, this record embodies a hypnotic blend of jazz, soul, and funk influences, brought to life through Astatke's innovative arrangements and signature vibraphone sound.
Expertly weaving together moody rhythms with rich instrumentation—flute, organ, horns, and more—Astatke crafts a truly distinctive sonic journey that remains influential decades later. This 2022 reissue from Strut lets listeners rediscover a pivotal moment in international jazz history, inviting both longtime fans and new listeners to experience the unique spirit of Ethio-jazz.
