Ebo Taylor – Life Stories
Album
Guitarist and arranger Ebo Taylor, from Saltpond in Ghana, wrote some of the most sophisticated highlife of the 1970s, mixing it with Afrobeat and funk. This collection gathers that period's work, and the appeal is the arranging: chiming guitar chords, tight horn charts and melodies that twist in unexpected directions. Choose it for highlife with a jazz musician's ear.
