Description
Ghana in the 1970s: highlife, rock, and soul collide and merge with tradition and culture. New styles meet old styles. A new generation renews old musical customs. New fashions meet old fashions, creating new fusions. Soundway present thirty-three original and previously un-reissued tracks from the time: obscure A-sides, B-sides and album cuts that have resisted a second look until now.
Ghana Special focuses on a variety of the vast number of diverse musical styles made in Ghana at the time - a selection of thirty-three tracks handpicked from a multitude uncovered over nearly ten years of on-going research. Package comes with a full colour 44 page booklet, including many original photographs, LP scans and a full history of the period - painstakingly pieced together over many years.
