"Kalita are proud to unveil the first ever compilation focussing on the phenomenon of ‘Burger Highlife', a crossover of West African melodies with synthesizers, disco and boogie that took over Ghanaian airwaves during the 1980's and beyond. Highlighting key recordings from genre-defining artists including Thomas Frempong and George Darko, as well as more obscure sought-after tracks by elusive bands such as Aban and Uncle Joe's Afri-Beat, Kalita come to the rescue of audiophiles, DJs and music-lovers alike with ‘Borga Revolution!' Spread over a double-LP housed in a gatefold sleeve. Accompanied by a 16-page booklet featuring extensive interview-based liner notes on each artist and never-before-seen archival photos." (Kalita)
