Description

A tremendous Afro-Soul album recorded in Togo in 1977 by Itadi Bonney. Official license, pressed on a 180 g vinyl housed in heavy deluxe cover including an interview of the artist. Limited pressing of 700 copies. Check!!

This rare album was created by a four piece band formed and leaded by Itadi. It was recorded live in Ghana at the radio station and remixed in Togo.

A really stunning fusion of funky arrangements, jazz inspirations and typical Togolese rhythms, sung in English, Mina and Akposo.

The message was political, calling for African unity and against dictatorship which obliged him to move to Washington DC during the 70ï¿½sï¿½

Itadi Bonney, a native of Togo, West Africa, is an international musician who is a composer, arranger, vocalist and guitarist. Itadi's music is a blend of Ghana's highlife and soul to create a sparkling, undulating and eminently danceable wave of melodies and rhythms, punctuated by funky keys and layered with smooth vocals and harmonies. Itadi has toured France, Ghana, Benin, Ivory Coast, Nigeria and U.S.
