Alemayehu Eshete - 5 - LIVE at Afrikafestival Hertme 2008

Performance - 6 July 2008
Along with Mahmoud and Tlahoun Gèssèssè, Alèmayèhu Eshèté is one of the most prolific singers in Ethiopian recorded music. Star vocalist of the Police Orchestra from 1960, he became one of the first artists to leave that institution and join the young guard of independent bands. Often described as the 'Ethiopian James Brown' or the 'Ethiopian Elvis', for his style and stage presence as well as for his music, Alèmayèhu has long symbolised modernist Ethiopia: in love with rhythm' n' blues and soul music, but still keeping hold of the unique roots of millennial Abyssinia.

Thank you for the memories! RIP

[@mikaeltewodros2438]

TIKUR GISSILA is my favorite of AIex. It is hard to believe that song is now half a century old. A very long time ago Debebe Eshetu asked him on live TV why his songs were always sad. I don't remember his answer or the context. I believe Alemayehu Eshete was the force behind the golden era of Addis music. I can watch him sing on you tube as long as I live and if I'm good and lucky I'll see him in heaven. But I wish he was here with his family and his country he loves so much.

[@mikel5098]

I was listening this song and dancing while I was working and when I got home opened KZbin I saw his gone I was like freezing… so sad 😭 😞 but he will be always in our hearts and we will keep Continue listening his song He didn’t die his getting rest Legends never dies they just getting rest
