F. Kenya - Ngakula Ngakula

For this third week of containment, I would like to share with you this fantastic album produced in 1978 by Essiebons.
F. Kenya's Band was formed in 1965 led by Francis Kenya, born in Esiama, a town in the Eastern Nzema District. He learned the trade of goldsmith but his interest in music developed so rapidly that he finally had to relinquish in the sixties, to join the Ahamanos Band and later the Kakaiku's No.1 Band. Since the formation of his own band, Francis has recorded some Akan records alongside with his mainly Nzema (his native language) records that made him famous in Ghana and neighboring Ivory Coast.
