Yeshimebet Dubale & Kennedy Mengesha - Metahugn Bezna
The reason he got the name "Kennedy" is that he was born in november 1963, the assassination month and year of J.F.Kennedy (35th President of the United States from January 1961 until he was assassinated in November 1963).
Kenedi was one of Ethiopia's top modern artists with a string of hits to his credit. Beautifully backed by the Roha Band with their usual fast paced sax and guitar line up. Great vocals with Kennedy weaving and warbling his way through the octaves. Lovely.

You wouldn't have happened to come across a Dubale album with this song? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjFe0tq5Yc4
It's called "I Remember a Man". Found out about it after hearing Ariel Pink's cover of the song, called "Reminiscences"
