Asembi Ara Amba, Vinyl / 7" Single Vinyl

Asembi Ara Amba Vinyl / 7" Single

by Y-Bayana & The Band of Enlightenment Reason and Love

Vinyl / 7" Single

Description

With his third single release, Y-Bayani (pronounced like Why-Bayani) shows clearly that he is the most intriguing roots-reggae sensation coming out of Ghana. He is backed again by the lushly grooving Band of Enlightenment, Reason and Love. 'Asembi Ara Amba', sung in Fanti language, is an old Fanti story about having bad luck if you see a vulture up in the sky. As Y-Bayani sees one suddenly and for no reason he gets in trouble with the police. Being held in the police station he finally takes his chance to escape to freedom while the policemen are taking a nap. On 'We Are the Band of Enlightenment, Reason and Love' the group presents their personal anthem. The song is a cinematic journey starting with a mighty horn theme, followed up by a mantric chant and enters finally into a wall of sound in double time. It's a small symphony for sure.
