Mulatu Astatke - Mulatu Of EthiopiaStrut present the official reissue of a landmark album in the field of African music, Mulatu Astatkes Mulatu Of Ethiopia from 1972. Recorded in New York, the album arrived at a time when Astatke had begun to master the delicate fusion of styles needed to create Ethio jazz. I left the UK for America and studied at Berklee College in Boston. I learnt the technical aspects of jazz and gained a beautiful understanding of many different types of music.
