A landmark celebration of Ghanaian music, Essiebons Special 1973 - 1984: Ghana Music Power House is a 14-track compilation lovingly assembled by Analog Africa that pays tribute to the iconic Essiebons label and its founder, producer Dick Essilfie-Bondzie. Spanning over a decade of recordings, this collection showcases the rich highlife and Afro-funk sounds that made Ghana's music scene one of the most vital and influential on the African continent during the 1970s and early 1980s.
What makes this release truly remarkable is the inclusion of six previously unreleased tracks unearthed from the label's golden era, offering a rare glimpse into recordings that had never been heard by the public. True to Analog Africa's reputation for meticulous curation, the release is accompanied by an in-depth booklet packed with research and context, making it as much a historical document as it is an electrifying listening experience.
