Began LP from Ethiopia ID please

[Turboellis]

Can anyone ID this LP jacket please? It's a Began LP from Ethiopia. That's all the info I have. Oh, and it's meant to be absolutely KILLER!



Anyone know it?

You mean begena. I think that's what she's playing on the sleeve.

It's deep and wonderful!

I *do* mean begena! Thanks eine. You da slayer!!

[Feel Good By Numbers]

it's released on Little Axe which is a sub label of Mississippi Records.....which is why the sleeve is pretty no-frills.

I have a copy ; it's a favourite.

I saw her playing live at a free park gig in Brussels park whilst I was on holiday there last summer......and happened to come across the record in a shop a few months later. so a chance discovery

Anything more you can tell us? Comparisons?

[Turboellis]

I'm not great at describing but in places it has a Don Cherry Brown Rice vibe.

Have a listen:

No obvious comparisons spring to my mind. Worth further listens for sure.

My first listen to “Brown rice” today.
