Roha Band - The Best of Roha Band Tour '90

[@OGOAB2023]

Born in the UK in 1950 and living in Mexico for the past 30 plus years I worked in southern Ethiopia (Awassa) in 1992 for 18 months and became familiar with Ethiopian music and in particular the Roha Band. I first heard their song Shew Beli Bileney at a local wedding. When the band - not the Roha Band unfortunately - struck up this tune the wedding guests rushed to the dance floor to join in the singing and to dance in traditional Ethiopian style dragging myself and a number of European work colleagues to the dance floor to join in. Truly an unforgetable infectious happy experience. I'm now into my early seventies and having collected music from all around the world over the years the Roha Band is still up there with my all time favourites and although I don't understand the lyrics to their songs this really doesn't matter. They bring back joyous memories in a style that can only be Ethiopian. The opening track to this album, Yetikimt Abeba, a tribute to the capital city Addis Abeba, is my personal favourite. I originally got a cassette copy of this album on a visit to Addis before I left the country. In those days it was almost impossible to buy an original cassette from a music shop instead you had to supply the shop with a blank cassette and call back 30 minutes later to collect a copy they made for you from a master cassette. A few years later I picked up a CD from the airport in Dubai which I still have along with a high fidelity MP3 copy on my computer. The MP3s get played frequently!
