Gnu,
I swear they played this at all the weddings and get togethers I went to as a kid, and all my aunts always got up and danced, especially my aunt Evy.
I’m glad, sprite. E.T. Mensah goes way back in Ghanaian music. He is considered the father of high life, an original Ghanaian musical style which was quite popular when I was there and long before I arrived.

Gnu,
Another one I really like. I don’t remember which, but some TV program used to open with this. (Spanish Flea)

Apparently it was used on The Dating Game. I would have guessed some comedy from the 1970s.

You brought it back to me.

Gnu,
Tijuana Taxi is one of my all time favorites of theirs.

Gnu,
I haven’t ever heard Rise before this. It doesn’t sound like them at all.
