Review quoted from hippy-djkit.blogspot dotcom : Mulatu Astatke is perhaps the most important and influential musician to come out of Ethiopia in the second half of the twentieth century. Mulatu is a multi-talented musician, composer, arranger, and has created a new sound “Aftro-Latin Soul”. He has taken the ancient five-tone scale of Asia and Africa and woven them into something unique and exciting. A mixture of three cultures, Ethiopian, Puerto Rican and American.
This 1966 LP by Astatke it is more in the Latin soul-jazz sound of the mid-’60s. His inspired synthesis of jazz and afro-cuban styles with the musical traditions of his home country has produced a body of work that stands alone in the fields of spiritual jazz and soulful, meditative grooves.On his own compositions and arrangements (which comprise about half the LP), sometimes more exotic and African colors bubble closer to the surface, as on the eerie vibe parts he lays on “Mascaram Setaba”.
The album recorded in Brooklyn, NY.

I do not own a professional VPI cleaner, but current grade would likely improve with a good cleaning.
