Mustapha Tettey Addy - Adiko (1980)
From liner notes by MTA:
This music comes from the South coast of Ghana, and is a ritual music performed by the fishermen asking the Spirits to help them catch more fish, and also when they return, as a thanksgiving. It can also be used as funeral music when an old fisherman has died. I play the Obrenton drum, and four of my brothers play Pretia, Ima Ima, and two gong-gongs.

Childhood friends...great music family...this is classic.
Like a never dying soul, the sweet melodious songs of Wolumei is ever alive. Sad remnants of Ga songsters have adulterated songs of the legendary WOLUMEI, DZADZELOI, ABADEI, E.T. MENSAH, KING BRUCE. JERRY HANSEN etc. Sad eh
William. Nostalgic beats there for me. I was growing up in Tanzania when my dad brought the whole album back. Would you by any chance have the whole album to share? I'd really appreciate that.
This is Phenomenal!
Beautiful and powerful 🥰🤩🤩🤩
Love all your videos, great job
My heritage

I was five years when this song came out the old man bought the record plate and he will play it every Friday evening on the radio gram with the record changer. I miss those times. That is how I fell in love with this song.
