E.T. Mensah and his Tempos Band

Da Vinylmentalist

Found this EP in some dump yesterday.

E.T. Mensah and his Tempos Band tracks:

Side 1 : Hweyie - Menye wo bowu

Side 2 : Ngele wae wae - Auntie B








My question for the African record experts here, what other records from E.T. Mensah do you recommend? Preferably mostly funky stuff or like the highlife Frank posts on his blog.

ET Mensah was more involved in the traditional Highlife scene and faded in the 70s when the more Funky stuff was starting to come out. If you like the Swing style Highlife he is your man. He did do a few quite funky tracks though, my favourite being Save Me.
