2017/Heavenly Sweetness (Buda)
A tenderly twisted ballad, from 1969, reinvented nowdays by its creator, the fabulous pianist & singer Girma Bèyènè (the Ethiopian who composed for instance ‘Musiqawi Silt’) and the Parisian quintet. Simply spiritual.
Well, just after Michael Jackson, there was other versions… This one, with amazing rhythm section (Bernard Purdie & Richard Davis), is so soulful jazz.
