An obscure album of soulful groovers – one of the odder albums of its
type from the time! Given that the record was recorded for Pickwick,
the Ghana Soul Explosion were most likely a group of studio players,
trussed up in fake Afro garb to look like the real thing – except
there's no pictures of the band in sight, though you get what we mean.
The overall sound of the album's more in a straight 70s funk mode than
you'd think from the name – but still, the record's a nice batch of
funky soul covers, including "Superstition", "Soul Makossa", "Superfly
TNT", "Family Affair", and "Are You Man Enough".
