Wax Poetics




An education and a blessing every time this drops through my mailbox. There is no better.

Hi,
I finally found some time to answer you back about that song from The Daktaris. I don’t know that much about the original artists of the song except that they’re called The Wallias band and that the band was formed in the 70’s by Mulatu Astatqé. I wrote on my blog that they still perform today but I’m no longer sure about that after a quick check on the net. What I did found was the original compilation from the mid 90’s on Munich Records that introduced me to this music. You can find it right here: http://bravojuju.blogspot.com/2007/09/va-ethiopian-groove-golden-seventies.html with some extra information.

I hope that it’s of any use to you.
