Synopsis

Product Description
KOFI AYIVOR (1939) grew up on the coast of Ghana. Trained to become a master drummer in his native Ewe tradition Kofi took the rhythms he already knew from his village to the capital city of Ghana and then to foreign lands. His career began as a player in the classic highlife music of the fifties and sixties with such bands as E.T. Mensah's Tempos Band before going on to become a member of Afro-rock pioneers Osibisa. Rhythmology collects many rare or previously unreleased tracks of Kofi Ayivor's own compositions as well as a cross-section of the incredible variety of genres to which he has lent his unique drumming talent.
