Other Products ｜Gyedu-Blay Ambolley: Simigwa Vinyl LP

Afrofunk heat repressed! Leave it to the good people at Strut Records to dig up something as rare as Gyedu-Blay Ambolley's Simigwa and hook you up with an official reissue. Originally released in 1975 on the Ghanaian Essiebons label (pretty much impossible to find in the field), Simigwa contains scorching afrobeat grooves filled with raw vocals, fuzzy Hammond, hot horns, and crazy percussion to work the dancefloor. Check "This Hustling World," "Akoko Ba," "Fa No Dem Ara," and "Toffie" for a taste of what we're working with. Produced by Gyedu-Blay Ambolley and Ghanaian music legend Ebo Taylor. 6 tracks in all with full pic sleeve reproduction and liner notes including a brand new exclusive interview with Ambolley himself!
