los issifu & his moslems: tanga beat

Starting his career with the Cafe De France Band in 1967, Los Issifu traveled around Ghana and Burkina Faso singing with various groups for almost 10 years before returning to his hometown of Ashanti Mampong in the north of Ghana to form the band heard on this 45. Pulled from his extremely rare Tanga Beat LP, the two songs here are prime examples of the raw, gritty Afro funk that Academy and Voodoo Funk have been issuing in their collaborative 45 series. It doesn't hurt that 'Kana Soro' leads off with a massive break either. As usual, this fully licensed release features vibrant restored sound and artwork derived from the original sources
