This Rough Guide is jam-packed with some of the biggest hitters in highlife history. Enjoy Victor Uwaifo's Nigerian joromi stylings, the gentle Ghanaian palm-wine of Koo Nimo, and even an early recording of Afrobeat superstar Fela Kuti presenting a firmly highlife vibe. Bonus CD: Seprewa Kasa - 'Seprewa Kasa' The seprewa is not called the 'soul of highlife' for nothing - it is likely to be the greatest African instrument you'll ever hear. This fresh and delicate, but seriously endangered, Ghanaian instrument is a cousin to the ever-popular kora from Mali, with a more earthy sound. Three virtuoso musicians (Baffour Kyerematen, Alfred Kari Banaman and Osei Korankye) have shared their ideas and passion to re-explore the traditional sounds of seprewa and origins of highlife in an acoustic contemporary setting, with breathtaking results.

Not exactly what was promised
The disc and delivery were acceptable but all the reviews displayed mentioned an additional bonus CD of older Highlife tracks which was not included this was misleading and a poor presentation of the product
