Released in 1980 and beyond you have to guess at information about this album. 'Let the music speak' must have been thought by the folks at Mr Bongo, the label that is releasing this re-release. Ebo Taylor was discovered by a Western audience in the late, late fall of his career. Anyone who has ever seen the best man perform will admit that recognition is justified. Accompanied by a band of which
… some members are a quarter of his own age, this veteran puts on a steamy set. Taylor is a gray eminence in the Ghanaian music scene, a man who renewed the local high-life music by adding elements from afrobeat. The music on this album sounds nice and lazy. The vocals sometimes evoke memories of Caribbean styles such as calypso and reggae. Add to that the grunting organs, the enthusiastic punches of a bruised trumpet and the twisting guitar lines of the master himself and you have an album full of relaxed nothing-to-the-hand music.
