this rough guide is jam-packed with some of the biggest hitters in highlife history. enjoy victor uwaifo's nigerian joromi stylings, the gentle ghanaian palm-wine of koo nimo, and even an early recording of afrobeat superstar fela kuti presenting a firmly highlife vibe. bonus cd: seprewa kasa - 'seprewa kasa' the seprewa is not called the 'soul of highlife' for nothing - it is likely to be the greatest african instrument you'll ever hear. this fresh and delicate, but seriously endangered, ghanaian instrument is a cousin to the ever-popular kora from mali, with a more earthy sound. three virtuoso musicians (baffour kyerematen, alfred kari banaman and osei korankye) have shared their ideas and passion to re-explore the traditional sounds of seprewa and origins of highlife in an acoustic contemporary setting, with breathtaking results.
