Description: | Life Stories by Ebo Taylor, released 7 April 2011, includes the following tracks: "Ebo Taylor - Victory", "Apagya Show Band - Kwaku Ananse", "Ebo Taylor - Aba Yaa" and more.
This version of Life Stories comes as a 2xCD. - 2011 two CD collection from Ghanaian highlife guitar legend Ebo Taylor. During Ghana's highlife explosion during the 1950s and '60s following wartime highlife pioneers like E.T. Mensah, Ebo Taylor made his name as a prolific composer, arranger and frontman leading two of Ghana's greatest big bands - Stargazers and Broadway Dance Band. This compilation revisits this heyday of Taylor's work, focusing on his solo albums and some of his lesser known side projects including the dynamite Apagya Show Band and short-lived Taylor-led combos Assase Ase, Super Sounds Namba and the Pelikan's. The selection also touches on his writing and production work for C.K. Mann and a collaboration recording with fellow member of early '70s nightclub band Blue Monks, Pat Thomas. |
