CD Reviews

Best CD of the year

Kevin | Calgary, AB | 09/02/2003

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This CD is a gem! I bought a lot of great African music this year but this CD stands out as the best overall. There are a lot of amazing songs here - and you'll never hear these played on a commercial radio station..."

If You Like African Music...

F. W. Young | Toronto, Ontario | 06/01/2004

(5 out of 5 stars)

"You've got to get this. From Fela-inspired Afrobeat to bizarre attempts at psychedelia to flat out dance craziness, this cd has it all. Wonderful package (including an amazing cover), but more importantly, this is absolutely great music."

Quality afro funk with horns

attentive listener | Joysey | 08/09/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Compilation is the result of 2 years of crate digging in Ghana for 1970s afro funk nuggets. Booty shaking good times for all. If afro funk with horns is your thing, this is well worth acquiring. Put on your most colorful dashiki, prepare some african foods and take some friends on a journey to the heart of funkiness. Ghana Soundz was Soundway's first entry, in what has become a catalog rich with facinating and entertaining african obscurities."
