Great to listen to. This is strictly from the Kwahu perspective. The part of the Yaa Amponsah singers didn't sit well with me because the song doesn't lament a divorce or unfaithfulness of a spouse. Rather the song is encouraging a married woman to divorce her husband so that the singer can go ahead and have an affair with her. Anyway I was born at Nkawkaw Nsuta in the mid 80's. I remember during Easter how many of the Kwahu musicians will come to town including Adofo, Ampadu etc to play concerts. They usually acted plays/drama during those night concerts. Those plays were usually meant to be scary. Though I never got to attend one myself because the big boys and girls won't take us along, I still remember all the scary posters, dwarves with feet facing backwards lol. Thanks for everything 'Black Chinese' or Copper Boy ( Kupa Boy) . You formed a huge part of my childhood memories.
And let me take this opportunity to praise obuoba j a adofo that amongst all the kwahu musicians he listed,he and nana ampadu has a most composed songs.he is second to nana ampadu and not kwahu only but Ghana as a whole
