Fantastic Playlist John! You really are unpredictable! One has to eagerly wait for your next feast.
The first song reminded me of the great film by Jim Jarmusch; Broken Flowers which has an Ethiopean character played by Jeffrey Wright...

I'll wait for a NEW SOUNDS episode fully dedicated to Mulatu Astatke.
Thanks JS!
Cheers.
