Uppers International: Dankasa

Today's Top Tune comes to us all the way from Ghana and Togo and travels through time! A new collection of West African songs have been put together reflecting organ-driven Afro-Beat spanning 1972 through 1978 -- a time that fused Afro-American funk and jazz with local rhythms. Today's Top Tune is performed by Uppers International and is titled "Dankasa".
