about

A classic and essential Hi - Life & Afro Funk album from one of the greatest Ghanaian singer and composer, reissued for the First time !
The legendary Alhaji Kwabena Frimpong's fantastic rare album was recorded in 1984 in Germany and originally produced and distributed from Hamburg .
K . Frimpong was born on July 22nd , 1939 at Ofoase in the Ashanti - Akim district, died Oct 18 th 2005 in Kumasi (Ghana) .
He entered right into music after elementary school by joining " Star de Republic" and later «Oko's band» after which he left to K. Gyasy's band where he worked for more than 6 years. As a prolific songwriter and singer , here's the reissue of his amazing album , a modern fusion of Hi- life and Soul .The excellent background is given by the famous Cubanos Fiesta with members of Vis-A-Vis band band such as the famous Sammy Cropper on guitar or Slim Manu on bass.
Originally produced by Atakora Mensah in Hamburg , this four songs recording is a blend of dancable and spiritual Soul and straight Hi life . A must have vinyl of percussive Afro Funk for all the music connoisseurs, “K. Frimpong backed by Cubanos Fiesta “ LP is a true masterpiece, so hard to find and reaching crazy skills for a decent copy affordable.
