Osibisa - Woyaya (Live on Austrian TV, 1972)

Музыка

The group Osibisa was founded in 1969 in London and consisted at the time of its formation of Teddy Osei (saxophone), Max Tontoh (trumpet), Lasisi Amao (tenor saxophone, percussion), Sol Amarfio (drums), Robert Bailey (keyboard), Wendel Richardson (guitar) and Spartacus R (bass guitar). The band members translate the band name loosely from Ghanaian as "criss cross rhythms that explode with happiness". They were considered the pioneers of world music from the mid-1970s and paved the way for other great artists like Bob Marley. They had their first success with the song "Music for Gong Gong". This was shortly followed by "Sunshine Day", "Dance the Body Music" and "Coffee Song". Their album Woyaya rose to number 11 in the LP charts of the time and in the mid-1980s they built their own recording studio, a theatre complex and their own record label "Flying Elephant" in Ghana.
Spotlight was a music programme for young people broadcast by the Austrian Broadcasting Corporation (ORF) between 1968 and 1978. It was the equivalent of Beat Club or Musikladen in Germany.

    Dear future generations, if you chance on this comment remember life isn't permanent. I made this comment on 23 of April, 2024 when I was an active and energetic youth in my 30s of age. God bless you and make your vision a reality. My advice to you is that never be influenced negatively by friends, never kill for money, you will never enjoy it.

It needs to be said playing musical instruments makes you appreciate music more and extends your talent to become a greater one. We are [still] going and only Heavens know where that may be, but we will get there. Woyaya !!!

Shoutout to all Ahemaa (KGee). It will be hard we know and the road will be muddy and rough but we will surely get there one day. So giving up shouldn't be our motto.
