![50 All Time Jazz Greats [Jazz, Smooth Jazz]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/fiqWDGq-kTU/mqdefault.jpg)
I lived with Ethiopians in NYC throughout the 1980s and this was the soundtrack of our apartments. It brings back warm memories, of tea and cigarettes and shiro with wonder bread.
I lived in addis ababa 2016 to 2019 and that's exactly what my life was like there
sounds amazing
Damn that sounds nice😂
You should write about it!
man your generation were lucky to be alive and in ethiopia at that time sounds like a vibe
Oh my goodness, I thought I knew music but you have schooled me. I had no clue that during that time when Miles Davis, Wes Montegomery, John Coltrane, Herbie Hancock and many more was bringing the vibe here in the states, I did not know that Ethiopia was sending that sultry jazz vibe as well. I am so grateful for this knowledge and have now began delving into this era in the one and only Ethiopia. Much appreciated!!
Mulatu Astatke -Listen to Shagu!
ethipopia did this wayyyyy after John Coltrane this is just an ethiopian interpretation of Black American music.
@@nicolaslegrand941400
@@Regalmanthe jazz is obviously african american but ethiopia had these types of music so when mulatu mixed them it became incredible
Jazz is not AFRICAN it is Black American we are different ethnic group ethiopians and other culture copy our music and they try to put their own tribal sound to it is it sounds silly just being honest and by the way ehtiopians are extremely racist towards Black Americans just speaking the truth hence why the spirit of this shit sounds awful@@blablablabla6213
As a East African, I am glad many people are experiencing African tunes and sounds. Africa has many generes of music and some sounds you may recognize as there are western artists who added western components and harmonics to the original roots. I urge everyone to go on a music tour of all 54 African countires and to start all the way back and work your way down to todays date. You will hear sounds from various regions from instruments you never knew existed. Welcome to the beautiful world of music & Enjoy my friends!
P.S. Do this to every single country on this planet, your soul will thank you.
Agreed
Africa is synonymous with good music
@@selvamthiagarajan8152 that is so, my friend 👌🏾
Absolutely right cos music is international language! You don’t even have to understand the meaning of the lyrics. It just naturally flows into your soul! I can not imagine my life without music.🎉🎺🎹🎭🥁🎻🎸🎧 🎼🎤🥂🙏🏽✊🏽👍🏽
Thanks to putumayo a few years back I was introduced to people like Mama Sissoko and Tshala Muana and dozens of others from different countries. I feel as though my musical life has been enriched greatly. Apropos of nothing and yet everything I am a honky.
Music is humanity's best creation.
Birds did it first lol
Nah. Science. Not even close.
You are both wrong. It's shoelaces
the evidence: takanaka all of me
Humanity is Music's best creation.
My ears are so lucky 😂78 years old musician in LA thanks
only you understand how lucky we are to have access to these new worlds with a couple of clicks. only you sir.

WHY AM I JUST FINDING OUT ABOUR ETHIOPIAN JAZZ OMG THANK YOU
The year is 2024, it's 1am in Paris and french guy of 41 years old discovers Ethiopian jazz for the first time. It's historic...
at least for him.
Don't feel bad I'm 46 it my first time hearing it also 444
It’s never too late, welcome!
Poetry! I find it at 1:23 am from Michigan, USA, at 47 with the same sentiments, Mon frere!!❤️🔥😆
am a 22 year old ethiopia just finding these sooo yea....
Wouuuuu.... Ethiopia is so rich in every thing.. Please stop fighting each other 😢
Correction: Ethiopia is so influenced by everything!
@@sistatsegemaryamin my mind Ethiopians are like Germans in Europe or japanese in Asia: if they do something they do it good
@@Nome_e_Cognome as an Ethiopian we appreciate that😊 we're also known for long distance running.
Fun fact: The first black or African person to win the Olympics marathon was a man called Abebe Bikila. He won the race in 1960 barefoot and set a way faster world record than thought possible at the time. He's go on to win again, breaking the world record again. Since then, Kenyans and Ethiopians have been setting the pace
@@NoRockinMansLand yes it happened here in Rome. In Italy the tv clip of his winning with the Italian commentator cheering for him was very famous
Yes, not fighting each other but the current genocidal regime is installed by foreign powers to its biddings of destroying the ancient Orthodox societies of Ethiopia that so rich culturally , religiously and historically. Thank you for having us in your thoughts, peace to you all
I am a jazz and African music lover, but had no clue about the hidden gem of Ethiopian Jazz, What?!? Wow, being of Greek heritage and growing up hearing Middle Eastern, Greek, and Turkish music, I definitely hear those melismas present in these tunes; I love it. Thank you for posting this and educating us all on this jazz art form.
you should here the lyrics for this songs there are mesmerizing, also the tunes
im also from greek heritage, that's exactly what I was thinking too.
Teddy Afro is the best musician in Ethiopian music history. Check out his 1997(ethiopian calendar) album "Yasteseriyal".
The Greeks and Armenians have a big touch on Ethiopian late music. That's why you are hearing melismas tunes.
@@brooktere7688 no they don't, ethiopia is literally one of the oldest countries in the world. Our music is not inspired from other countries, it is our own. And it is the only country in Africa to never be colonized. I have never heard anyone say that Ethiopian music is inspired from armenians or Greeks from any book or article...
I spent 10months in Addis, this takes me back to the jazz clubs. it was great
What did you do there?
@@ETTP.S I was on a Fulbright Fellowship working for the Ministry of Water.
...Ethiopian jazz presumably
which area? i stayed in gerji and loved it
There is actually a history of caribbeans and Black Americans going to Addis Ababa and setting up theaters and cabarets in the 1930s and some Black American soldiers helping to train Ethiopian pilots.
As an Ethiopian is it so nice to see our music appreciated, Ethiopian Jazz is a hidden gem and I’m so glad it is being appreciated and discovered by more people. There is so much to celebrate about my country this being one of them, enjoy!
Who loves Ethiopia music
My great grandfather was a jazz musician and I always did presentations on the world of jazz in school which bored all of my classmates. 😂 With that came the opportunity for a country boy to see the world beyond the Jim Crowe South. I knew jazz spread from America to Cuba, Brazil, China, and Paris but I never knew about Ethiopia. Thank you for this. I wish he were alive today for me to impress with this video.
Jazz was introduced to Ethiopians during the time black fighter pilots were there training them to fly. Charles Robinson, the father of Tuskegee became the Commander of the Ethiopian Air Force until his death in 1954 at the age of 51
My father was a jazz pianist in Detroit, from the 1940's through the 1960's. He was born in 1916 . 🎼🎶🎼🎵🎼

IT ALL COME FROM AFRICA, and is still there in the African villages!!!
@Maymaymaok No it did not. It came from American blacks. Jazz is considered the only true American art form. The jazz you hear in Africa is also due to travel and influence of African American pre and post World War. We also invented rock n roll. Country music is a descendent of blues music also started by American blacks. Jazz does have other influences with bass from our African ancestors and even classical music from Europe. However it is a unique American art form created by African Americans, We are descended from Africa but we have formed our own culture and arts. It does not take away from African’s contributions to music and the arts. However you only get various art forms when one group invents it from their own particular experiences and exposure to the world. That is very different for an African American vs an African.
@@carrington2949 where did the blacks come from????
In time I noticed that appreciation of jazz music to be intellectually, emotionally and spiritually.
“Jazz is about being in the moment.” the older I get the more I like it .
This is from the time when Ethiopian music, especially jazz music, reached its apex. Thank you and well done.
jazz has not reached its apex yet, what you talking about?
Jazz is not ethiopian music
@@Nokia1975__ He never said it was, I think he meant to say that at that time is when Jazz hit its apex, which is exactly what he said.
@@Nokia1975__who said that?? You're just desperate to argue
@@Nokia1975__I see comprehension is not one of your strong attributes 😂
You know when God comes down and plays music and leaves… that’s Mulatu Astatke… pure God
Mulatto Astatke is a legend forever
Can we just stop assigning top quality musicians #Almighty status please?
Well said!👍🏽🙏🏽
@@aclark903 we are all made of god, we're all somehow a particle of gof
@@eleanorrigby511 We are all made BY God. Merry Christmas.
the more music i hear from outside of America, the more I love music
Music is music...from everywhere ❤
As an Ethiopian, I can't even explain how our music has downgraded over the years. I'm so jealous of the people who were listening to Ethiopian jazz back in the day, and I can't imagine how moving it was for them at that time.
Ooh this is fantastic. I was bored scrolling and when I saw the title I was intrigued. Thanks a million. I’m in hospital having a shit time and this really cheered me up. Liked and subbed, respect and love :)
Hope and pray you get better.
Que te mejores amigo.
@@lucimandala1101Dear unknown,hope the individual above will read your kind wish& appreciate it! Wishes for happiness in your lifetime🙏🏻❕🎄☃️🤶⛪🌟
@@blacsouljahSo grateful for your sweet and comforting comment!I wish he/she'll see it& get well.
May God bless you richly in the same way, Beloved.@@ramfaki1256
I’m a lover of music and adore jazz and I love this. I can’t properly explain what my thoughts are but I love this. I can only describe it as music that reaches the soul and envelops you as you listen. It’s wonderful. As a 19 year old who is really just exploring different types of music this is a 1000/10 for me.
As an Ethiopian and a visual designer I want to tell you the best Ethio Jazz playlist now exsists. Osom human you are
Dang It… now I godda go find all these records to add to my collection 😂
Ethiopian jazz is so relaxing
I'm being schooled right now.❤
I can't thank you enough for this great introduction to Ethiopian jazz. This is wonderful music. Thank you thank you.
What a Beautiful Picture on this Video - and Music that is Spiritual, Beautiful and Powerful. Any source for that picture?
African jazz is ultra cool.
I’m terrified of the music I’m missing out on. Bless you RUclips 💗
Such a great time of transition jumping to new year 2024, thanks for sharing such a wonderful jazz moment.
Music is a universal language we all can feel the beats. The modern jazz among the stars stands out tall the giant Ethiopan outstanding Mulatu Astatke gave birth to new sound effects connecting individuals souls on the dance floor access to travel back to old memories. We do have many of musicians to give credit who played huge roles and limitless contributions to jazz music definitely history will remember them throughout generations.
Thanx for the ear gold . It’s awesome that we live in an age where we can share amazing underground tunes like this.
Yes. Imagine how much digging through recordings or to be lucky enough to talk to the right person to find this music without RUclips
Mulatu, the Ras hotel band and Amha eshete made history in late sixties. Ethio jazz was introduced i think later the walia in colaboration with Mulatu followed up with recording ethio jazz. We thank them a lot.🎉 15:32
Girma Beyen was the pioneer. Check the facts, dear.
Mela Mela brings out the inner Ethiopian that I was never born as 😍🤩🤩
BRO YES. I am in the library right now but I just wanted to get up and dance. 😂
በጣም proud to be Ethiopian 🎉
I wish i was born on that golden era! it was a great time for every one !
hmmm no there's always problems, but carry on
Holy mount zion this is just right! Ethiopian proverb" what is good is not always right, what is right is always good"
One of the best ethio jazz collection out there. The narration and back stories makes it exceptional. Need more!!
African music has had a significant impact on the development of jazz, particularly in terms of its rhythm and percussion. 23:00
Jazz was born out of the cultural experience of African Americans and can be traced in a direct line to the slave songs of the plantations through the Negro Spirituals, Ragtime, and the Blues. [Jazz in America]
The combination of using African rhythm combined with European melody through instruments is what formed jazz, which is what anthropologists call cross pollination syncretism. [VIBE 105]
Jazz music, blues music, and gospel music all grew from African roots. 32:32
Jazz music was heavily influenced by the rhythms and melodies of African American spirituals, blues, and ragtime music, as well as the creole music of the Caribbean and Latin America. [IOM]
This is a treasure! Thank you. Greetings from Ethiopia. 🙏🏽🥰
Memories of the good golden years,🙏🙏🙏
WHAT! I learn something new every day on RUclips Univerisity! Thank you for sharing!!!
😂😂 ..Me too 🎉👨🏾🎓
@@chiefkolass8226 ...and me three, 😉
I recommended this Album to a few Jazz aficionado friends of mine.....Now I am one of their big heroes!!! This is unbridled joy that totally soaks your soul
The good old days ❤
I’m speechless. When that baseline hit along with that guitar I was like oh shyte
My dad grew up to this🙌🏾
This music is singular! I love the middle eastern vibe over jazzy drums. And it’s a great listening closely and also it’s a beautiful thing floating in the background.
It's not a middle eastern vibe. It is an east African, specifically Ethiopian vibe. Ethiopian jazz utilizes four traditional pentatonic scales unique to Ethiopia. This is not middle eastern music.
@@ellegmye Ethiopian jazz combines the pentatonic scale-based melodies of Amharic music with the 12-tone scale and instrumentation of western music not to mention Ethiopian jazz was literally pioneered by an Armenian
So glad this showed up in my scroll....i always enjoyed that African style of guitar playing and sounds great incorporated in this jazz set
Nalbandian played a big role in the 1950s but the melodies are ancient.
How many of you know Ethiopia had written music long before a lot of Europe. The father of Ethiopian melodies , Mezmure Dawit from the Orthodox church has had written music for 1000s of years. Facts!
The vibrations in the body tho
Wow. Viva Ethiopia Always strive for the best
Goosebumps worthy, pure class.
I am proud of you brother, to like Ethiopian Music.
Ευχαριστώ για την υπέροχη τζάζ που ποτέ δεν είχα ακούσει. Χαιρετισμούς από την Ελλάδα.🇬🇷🍉💖
To whomever did this, to whomever narrated this. Thank you soo soo much for trying to tell our unimaginably incredible talents , these people and their work is and are pure legends,
Ethiopia gave birth to music I believe , and we should all help get these legendary works and incredibly talented individuals their credit and Ethiopia her copyright!!! 💚💛❤️ Love wins , Ethiopia is eden on earth!! The most magical place with the most beautiful people.
Where did you read that ethiopia gave birth to music?
Ahhh RUclips Algorythm my old recommending musical friend, yesterday you send me to Japan and the etherals of wind and air, to Tokio 1980 City Pop - took a u-turn around 1960ies folk songs of the west, and here I am today in Ethiopia. Where will you take me next?
Thanks for mentioning Gevorg Nalbandyan, as Armenian Im very proud of what we did
🇪🇹🤍🇦🇲
I'm not sure how I got here, but I'm glad I did.
I'm so happy I stumbled onto this. Thank you for shading light on the most beautiful part of our musical history. Shout out from Ethiopia ❤❤🇪🇹
This makes me happy as an Ethiopian
I first heard Ethiopian jazz about 18 years ago, and I am crazy for it.
Amazing music. I had a chance to visit Ethiopia long ago, and biy was I amazed by their music!
Takes me back to 2017❤ a fellow from Mexico city showed me Ethiopian jazz and here I thought to be a jazz fanatic lol
Beautiful Ethiopian Jazz.
I hear James Brown then Carlos Santana and big bands swinging freely and beautifully like people who own the music and love their instruments. A treasure indeed.
Great background commentary on The Golden Era of Ethiopian music & Artists.
It is not complete ....
@@abck23Nobody claimed so. What are you on about?
Tempi di una volta
I would love it to reach many of us everyone I send it too absolutely loved it!!! True music it is!!
THIS IS GOOOOOOOOOOLD !!!!!
Thats a nice picture !
You can't fake an Ethiopian face by theyre physical characteristics !
I don't mean any disrespect.
I have been incarcerated with Ethiopians. Very rich culture. I Would love to go visit one of this days.
Saludos desde Honduras !
I am getting into Jazz and OMG this has blessed me. I want to learn more and what artists can give me this vibe. Thank you ❤
Check out Alice Coltrane, so underrated relative to her famous husband, John. (Although, definitely listen to John Coltrane, too!) I recently discovered Nala Sinephro, from the UK. Her music sounds influenced by Alice.
@@hippocraticloaf thank you!!
@@hippocraticloafgreat recommendations.
Excellent sound quality... flawless arrangements and performanxes....
Only discovered how cool Ethiopian music is by listening to the Oh No album "Dr No"s Ethiopium"
Waouh !! Beautiful encounter ! Thank you so much ! This is exactly what my soul was craving for ! 🙌🏿❤️🔥
J'adore le jazz d'Ethiopie!! Longtemps que je ne l'avais pas écouté , une merveille!!
WOW..🧐Most incredible this music from Ethiopia 😮This puts new pieces to the puzzle-seen here with "Chifara? The 60's & NYC" Wow.. never knew. TY for ths! Here, is new meaning. Some may know- if not for Castro_Cuba there would be no Jazz or Latin music AKA The Salsa from Puerto Rico of where im from. Some might know that the whole Continent of Africa was once called Ethiopia-The "Cradle and Birth place of all civilization-->(Humankind) But here we see it (Music) is also the place where all music has gotten its origin from.. Interesting for sure.. 😉Peace Blessings ASHE
Amazing! Thanks for the history. I learned so much. I fell in love with the Etiopiques 25 years ago. አመሰግናለሁ
I love me some ethio jazz! i’ve only listened to Mulatu’s catalogue so i’m really grateful for this playlist and the rich history that came with it.
immersive! thanks
Completely new to me. Superb history and incredible musical compositions and vocals plus instrumental. Love your site and your commentary. Many thanks💐☕️🎼

Thank you my boi. This was beautiful.
What is the meaning of "boi"?
@@hawthorne3889it means “boy” but in a more familiar manner.
It’s like saying “friend”.

What a lovely surprise, and I'm really happy to see so many of you enjoyed it. Thank you for your kind words.
Damn God of universe
This is beyond beautiful! Thank you❤
.... now... i go into a trance.. thank you kindly... Alhamdulillah
I know about Mulatu Astatke and Hailu Mergia, but the rest of the artists were new to me. Great mix!
This is very sweet and interesting. I didn't realize American music and culture had reach that far back then. Well done.
???
This is from Ethiopia..in Africa! No Americans here
@@angelstarlight5038 They're talking about how Ethiopian jazz was influenced by American jazz (jazz first began in the USA). How is that hard to understand?
@@dandeluxe8731 Next they'll try to pretend kpop isn't 90s rnb repackaged ( by the exact same producers ).
@@dandeluxe8731that's of course the normal way to look at it. But what is jazz if not an evolution of African rhythms (fused with Western harmony) from the black people of then?
Hola! Me encantó! No se si puede hacer automaticamente, pero sería genial poder activar los subtitulos en español...
