Ghana's Highlife Music Collection — Jacob Sam
evidence
Kwame Asare, known as Jacob Sam, born at Cape Coast in 1903, formed the Kumasi Trio and recorded in London for Zonophone's West African series in 1928, including "Yaa Amponsah" — the earliest guitar-band highlife recordings; his picking style derived from the two-finger technique of the seperewa and he was taught guitar by a Kru seaman. V55 verification basis: retrieved in search summary attributed to this collection description and corroborating reference entries; the collection page was not opened, no disc or matrix number was checked, and retrieved sources differ on how many sides were recorded.
