I feel you. I had the album "Happy Children" in the mid 70's. I learned today that beautiful smiling soul SOL AMAFIO just passed. RIP

Now watching the 1971 video in 2024, it comes to my mind that how young and full of happiness and energy all of them were. Now from some recent photos and videos, Teddy Osei and Dell Richardson look quite senior. May God bless them with long life and good health. Sad to note that some of the group musicians especially Sol Amarfio has already left the world.
The first Afro musical band in the world... love from Ghana 🇬🇭

I have loved the sound of Osibisa since the early 70's and always will. Greetings from St.John's Newfoundland. My step brother Ray Roman turned me on to this joyous sound and vibe many many years ago when we were the young dudes and I will never forget him for opening my mind to this wonderful sound.☮🌴✝♾
Loved and still love Osibisa in Perú. Great African jazz fusion band. They were te best!!!!!

@@TheNanaedusei Yes...and Osibisa has a NEW album with Robert Bailey and other longtime members[First time female band members too!] coming out called New Dawn(I think) in 2021!
It's 50 years ago when I played this album on cassette and kept playing it even in reverse as encore and my recently departed Mom used to say it will snap sooner because of overplay. 😅😅😅😅❤❤🎉🎉 From South Africa
Since the halcyon days of the seventies, Osibisa’s rhythms have been the soundtrack to our lives. Huddled in a friend’s living room, we were entranced by the pioneering beats of ‘Osibisa’ and ‘Woyaya’ -albums that became our anthems. Fast forward to today, and their live performance still pulsates with that same vibrant energy. However, it’s a bittersweet note to find that the visual storytelling fell short. This was more than a concert; it was a legacy in the making. Yet, the lens through which we’ll remember this moment didn’t capture the grandeur it deserved -a poignant reminder of the power of preserving art for posterity.
Oslo 15 November 1971. I was happy - I had bought a ticket to the concert with Osibisa in Njårdhallen and took the subway to Makrellbekken. Today I discovered the NRK recording on You Tube - Thank you! Great band Great music!
Trumpet and saxophones make such a contribution on top of brilliant percussion and memorable melody. Such musicality. So happy to have seen them four times. May Osibisa sail on forever

Grupo fabuloso.Con gran despliegue de ritmos e instrumentos de percusión.Saludos de La Paz,Bolivia.
had the pleasure to see them Live in Düsseldorf ....71 or 72 I was 18/19 then...... Vorboten des Afrika's
Wowwwwwwww
Music in the 70s was way cool. Completely analogue and amazing musicians.
This is Awesome !! Have seen them myself live at oude rai in Amsterdam oct.1974
Excellent music! 👍
Watch the bass guitarist Spartacus.. My favourite... Shailendra Singh from Brisbane Australia
Mighty great😮
The greatest ever! I believe they are as follows: 0:03, 06:23: Teddy Osei (Ghana) (Band leader) (Saxophone) 01:14, 10:47: Sol "Rhythm Man" Armafio (Ghana) (Drummer) 02:54, 21:34: Spartacus R (Grenada) (Bass) 03:47, 10:53: Loughty Lasisi Amao (RIP) (Ghana) (Percussion, Sax) 10:22, 27:23: Robert Bailey (Trinidad) (Keyboard) 12:11, 30:00: Mac Tontoh (RIP) (Ghana, Teddy's brother) (Trumpet) 12:29, 22:46: Wendel Richardson (Antigua) (Lead Guitar) Please correct if I have got any wrong. Also, on percussion at 20:14, I cannot figure out who that is.

Is that Loughty Amao again?

@@johnrobertson586 Thanks for the suggestion but that is however clearly not Loughty who, at this stage of the performance, is on sax and unlike the person we are wondering about, is bearded, dressed differently including a Safari-style (not Fez-style) hat and laying down a very high-energy tempo, unlike our friend who is more studied. I am thinking that is Daku "Potato" Adams who joined the original line-up as a percussionist. All the best.

I wouldn't go as far as to say that, even though I went as far as to say Alvin Lee blew Carlos away, until Hendrix blew him away! That didn't make any sense! (get the drift?) But you are right Sir, this band blew away a lot of bands in creativity and longevity. I had "Happy Children" in 1974.
can beatles or U2 pink floyd or stones or pearl jam DO THIS ?????
