Release Notes: ░██▓
██▒
All the songs are great afro funky jams, the fusion of local ██░
styles with the American jazz and funk makes some of the most ██
interesting music out there. Perhaps it took 3 decades for ██
labels to realize that reissuing this outstanding music is a ██
good idea, but thankfully they have done so and it's never ██
too late. ██
██
About: ██
██
Following his recent studio album with Afrobeat Academy, ██
'Love And Death', his first international release, Ghanaian ██
highlife guitar legend Ebo Taylor teams up again with Strut ██
for a long overdue definitive compilation of his seminal ██
1970s recordings, 'Life Stories'. ██
██
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. Moving to London to study ██
music in 1962 alongside West African luminaries like Fela ██
Kuti and Peter King, Taylor formed the Black Star Highlife ██
Band and began incorporating jazz elements into traditional ██
highlife forms. ██
██
Returning to Ghana, Taylor became an in-house arranger and ██
producer for Dick Essilfie-Bondzie's Essiebons label, working ██
with other major Ghanaian stars like C.K. Mann and Pat ██
Thomas. Through the '70s, he then recorded a number of solo ██
projects, exploring unique fusions and borrowing elements ██
from regional Ghanaian folk music, Afrobeat, jazz, soul and ██
funk. ██
██
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 Pelikans. 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. ██
██
Tracks include the anthemic 'Heaven', sampled by Usher on his ██
hit with Ludacris, 'She Don't Know', the original version of ██
the poignant 'Love And Death' and the rare 15-minute nugget, ██
'Aba Yaa'. The package features rare photos, original album ██
artwork and sleeve notes by Soundway Records' Miles Cleret. ██
