Gyae Su

Thomas says Gyae Su is his song and that Ebo Taylor wrote the horn parts; the lyrics are about turning to God when weak. An earlier version on Nakasi Records in 1978 is mentioned in a Duncan Brooker mix on OkayAfrica. The 2015 version is a full-band rearrangement at 4:12, track two of side A, premiered by OkayAfrica on April 22, 2015. Afropop premiered an extended rehearsal video filmed in Accra on June 17, 2015, with Kwame Yeboah on guitar and Sunday Owusu on percussion. Afropop's writer heard sweet vocal harmonies over steady bass and drums with Taylor's rhythmic horns. It was a highlight of the WOMAD 2018 set. We assume our upload is the album recording but could not verify that; we found no chart entry or covers.
