Yes, indeed [ch390]kyeame Kwame. There was a definite sense of inspiration and connection amongst our people. The uniting with each other says a lot and definitely must have made the Ancestors happy to see. Imagine the pride that was felt by our people. Notice the sense of joy and happiness to know an Afrikan country has gained independece from our oppressors.
Awotunde, I thought it was BlackNificent as well. I am happy to see that you and Ćbádélé enjoyed it as much as I did. When I first read the document I really felt good about seeing the love shared by our people for each other. We definitely had a sense of brotherhood back then that is even lacking today. These days some our people would think that Ghana is some remote country in Afrika, and wouldn't even consider supporting. Look how the calypsonians went to Ghana to show there support.
I have heard the songs. I am still trying to get my audio link to work, so the members here can hear the songs as well.
Laurel Aitken's song Ghana Independence (They Got It)
NOTE: The Audio Link is working now.
Medase [ch390]kyeame Kwame for fixing the problem.
Peace & Blessings!
