Atakora Manu’s Band – Pim No Bi
Ambassador Records 1981

Atakora Manu, front

After bringing several Ghanaian groups who operated from
Nigeria, today a band who stayed at home. This 1981 album
by Atakora Manu must have been recorded in at least two
sessions. We hear 6 instruments and only have three
musicians. Atakora Manu, Maringe and Moses
Akwaboa did a good job, I would not have
noticed without reading the backsleeve.
Only 25 minutes but you don’t
wanna miss dem…

tracks;

1 Sunkwa
– Owuo nye
2 Pim no bi

    This was one of the first Ghanaian records I ever bought. Nice album. Will have to go back and listen to some Atakora Manu for old times sake. Happy New Year Moos!

    The maringe guy is very good with the bass guitar….the Akwaboah name is now gettin synonymous with highlife music….Moses Akwaboa was excellent on organ as well…they were both on Alex konadu’s akwadaa Wesewa album & they did a very good work there on the bass & organ too…..keep them coming
