Tout un focus sur Ebo Taylor hier sur Bandcamp Daily : Eight Essential Releases From Highlife and Afrobeat Legend Ebo Taylor
▻https://daily.bandcamp.com/features/ebo-taylor-album-guide
Born in 1936 in the Ghanaian city of Cape Coast, Ebo Taylor is a living avatar of two great West African musical traditions: Ghanaian highlife and Nigerian Afrobeat.
Highlife, with its bright, ecstatic, guitar-driven melodies, encompasses the joy and optimism of the African people in the face of global anti-Blackness. On the other hand, the driving funk rhythms and revolutionary themes of Afrobeat characterize the emotional temperature and political ambitions of Black people around the world. By expressing all of these complex sociopolitical dynamics, highlife and Afrobeat represent two musically distinct but historically interrelated sides of the African cultural experience.
