Jazz music community with review and forums
Upon my return from Ghana in 1977 I tried to apply some of what I learned in various musical groupings, among them Archimedes Badkar, but after some time a bigger group grew out of that to specifically create music around the drumming (mostly Ewe) and funeral music from the north of Ghana, The Bitter Funeral Beer Band.
Drummers Bosse Skoglund and Thomas Mera Gartz, Sigge Krantz on bass and guitar, Mattias Hellden on cello, Thord Bengtsson guitar and violin, Anita Livstrand vocal and ko-gyil, Kalle Eriksson and Tommy Adolfsson on trumpet plus Jörgen Adolfsson, Ulf Wallander, Christer Bothén and Kjell Westling on reeds joined me in that first edition of the band that recorded for ECM with Don Cherry as soloist. After the release in 82 we toured europe and played at the Jazz Yatra in Bombay in 1984.
