[ad_1]
This record perfectly showcases his rich and unique vocal finesse, making it a perfect introduction to the long-awaited album with Adrian Younge and Ali Shaheed Muhammad.
The song was recorded in Los Angeles at Linear Labs studio together with some members of the Ebo Taylor Family band from Ghana. As Adrian Younge and Ali Shaheed Muhammad, the forces behind this project, explained, it was a great honour working with the Ghanaian legend.

They travel the world searching for rare records and the artists who created them.
