    Description: DM2008081401:GHAED:EDUCATION:SOCIAL :PERSONALITIES:JUN 1960 - A Glory Of The Coast - Where many of our Artists learned their skill - Art training is taken as seriously as any other subject at the Achimota school. Many of our prominent artists have come from there. About 40 years ago a man had a vision. He wanted West Africa to have a school comparable with the best in Britain. From that ideal has grown Achimota, pride of Ghana, glory of the coast to-day. (Photograph by Drum Photographer BAHA)

    Description: DM1999121019:SAED:MUSIC:THEATRE:APARTHEID:AUG1956 - Shantytown In City Hall - It all started with the huge, compelling party poster splashed majestically over Johannesburg. The poster also carried a controversy, sensitive as a winter blister. There would be shows for Euros only and shows for Non-Euros only. All this would take place at the Johannesburg City Hall. There the music, song and dance of the townships would be presented by the Union of South African Artists. So if this Union claims to champion the cause of us Blacks, why the heck should they go in for segregation and separate audiences and black dates and white dates? At the end of the seventh show, Township Jazz moved to the Taj Mahal Night Club where the artists and friends were treated to a pary to celebrate the success of the run.

    Description: DM2000041713:GHAED:SOCIAL:ART:PERSONALITY:MAR1961 - Bar-Wall Artist - Anang Y.K. He paints Satchmo. Its very difficult to have a beer in Ghana today without becoming a patron of the arts. A man may find himself drinking in a portrait gallery or surrounded by a permanent exhibition of seascapes. But wherever he goes he can't fail to notice the startling invention of our ever-growing community of bar-room artists. (Photograph by Drum Photographer BAHA)

    Description: DM2000091518:SAED:MUSIC:PERSONALITY:DEC1961 - Kippie-Sad Man of Jazz - The sad man with the sax. That's Kippie 'Charlie Parker' Moeketsi, the 35-year-old son of a carpenter from George Goch. Kippie has had, and still has bouquets thrown at him from all angles. Most of the time he doesn't care or know about them. Most times he's heading for the nearest shebeen. It has been said of Kippie that the ghost of Charlie 'The Bird' Parker lives in him. He has been called the problem child of music, the naughty Puck with a profound weakness for a shapely leg irrespective of age. But, whatever widely varying opinions people have about Kippie, they're unanimous on one point-that he is a great and devoted musician. Ian Bernhardt of Union Artists summed up; He is still the most talented musician to be produced by this country, and we think very highly of him.
