Very interesting article in the NY Times about the resurgence of jazz in Ethopia, including a short bit on a mandolinist named Ayele Mamo. According to the article, there was a history of their own brand of jazz, but it had basically ceased for a couple of decades due to the military dictatorship. Now it's coming back. bb
