Description

[Machine Translation] E.T. Mensah, the king of "highlife" dance music that swept West Africa in the 1950s and 1960s, has compiled his recordings with his own orchestra into this definitive 4-CD compilation. It includes not only the recordings from the CDs that have already been discontinued, but also some recordings that have been reprinted for the first time. Menser mixes Latin music, calypso, and swing to create a spontaneous, melting sound and songs. This album will resonate not only with fans of African music, but also with their old Latin, calypso, and swing influences.
Note: This is an import edition (manufactured outside of Japan).
