Description
Soundway steps back into Africa with thirty-three original and previously un-reissued tracks from Ghana delivering a follow on of sorts from the hugely successful CD/LP Nigeria Special.Ghana Special represents nearly ten years of on-going research in and around the cities of Accra, Tema, Cape Coast, Takoradi and Kumasi, knocking on musician�s doors and visiting ex-distributors, DJs, collectors, manufacturers and shop owners who helped piece the story together.
The roots of this project goes back to a pair of albums named Ghana Soundz (Volumes 1 and 2), which focussed solely on the �funkier� side of the same period. Alongside new artists and groups, some other works of the many musicians and producers labelman Cleret met whilst researching those records are also included here. Many of these tracks have remained only in people�s memories or in collections of LPs that sit unplayed: until now of course.
Ghana Special comes as a 5LP vinyl box set! , with info, photographs and original record scans.
