Released via Buda Musique, Ethiopiques, Vol. 3 stands out as one of the best and most diverse installments in the series, despite its material emerging in 1975 during the decline of Addis Ababa's musical golden age under a military regime. The compilation features rare, trance-heavy tracks by the acclaimed singer Mahmoud Ahmed, alongside exceptional James Brown-style heavy funk by Alemayehu Eshete backed by Middle Eastern horns. Additionally, tracks by Hirut Beqele showcase Jamaican ska influences, making this volume an ideal starting point for exploring the series.
