Akwaboa's first

Akwaboa proudly presents: Akwaboa's first album. As you could have guessed by my nickname, i'm a huge fan of 'Master' Bob Akwaboa.
Kwabena Akwaboa started in the sixties, learning the trade from the famous highlife pioneer Kwaa Mensah. He joined the K. Gyasi Band, and in 1963 started his own Akwaboah's Guitar band.



According to the cover notes, this was his first LP album. Here's the first track.

Ena Ne Agya Awu

I've found my love (again)

Some cd's i just play over and over. One of these is the 'I've found my love' compilation on the Original Music label. All OM's are great, but i like this one best: One guitar, some voices and simple percussion, short songs with palm-wine roots.
Anyway, when i heard this album by Akwaboa i was immediately hooked: i've played it on repeat for weeks.
And because it is such a short track, i'll add a Akwaboa single too!
(now who's complaining?)
