  Osibisa has nothing to do with origination of High Life music. Highlife music originated in Accra, from the Ga people folklore music.

  You refuse to accept the facts even when it's staring at you in the face. ET Mensah was born in 1919. He started playing in the forties, even played with Louis Armstrong. He predates Naa Amanoah and Osibissa.

  AfroRock did NOT morph into AfroBeat!
