Tracing the progression of his Ethio jazz experiments with full access to all of the labels for whom he recorded, 'Mulatu Astatke: New York-Addis-London' is the essential Mulatu.

Covering his first recordings in the UK during 1965, his groundbreaking fusions for the small Worthy label in New York and his key ‘70s recordings back in Addis on Amha, Phillips and Axum, the album features comprehensive sleeve notes by Miles Cleret, boss of the excellent Soundway Records imprint, and rare, previously unseen photos from Mulatu’s personal archive.
