Come this Friday, December 1, 2005, old highlife musicians from the 80's will gather at the Accra International Conference Center for the show of a life time.
The concert which has been dubbed 'MOGO FESTIVAL' is set to celebrate Ghanaian music.
The objective of "MOGO" is to reminisce and recount true and authentic Ghanaian music.
"MOGO" is a renaissance of Ghanaian musical heritage and seeks to track Ghanaian music in transition.
"We are going to give our fans the best of our performances come this Friday, said Osibisa in an interview with Ghananewstoday. We' ve really charged and ready for this concert and all that i can say to our fans is that they should prepare for a great show"
The group which is based in London, has arrived in the country for the show on Friday.
"When you have a fan base and they show that they really love you, its hard to turn down their request to hear you" said Teddy the leader of the group.
The 69-year-old saxophonist and flute player is home for a break after the band's summer tour of the United Kingdom which took in 15 concerts. The group which is made up of Graham, Kenny Welly, both from Jamaica and Paul Bilson from Ghana are set to stand in on trumpet. Sol Amarfio's drum seat is comfortable for Frank Tontoh and Robert Fordjour,both Ghanaians.
Keyboard players always waiting in the wings include Emmanuel Rentzos, Bessa Simmons and Kwame Yeboah, all from Ghana and Errol Reid from Jamaica.
Nii Okai and Kofi Ayivor, both from Ghana, are there for percussion.
On bass,Vico Mensah and Herman Asafo-Adjei from Ghana, Mandenque from Cameroon and Leroy Bushel from Jamaica are always poised for action.
