### [Sunshine Day](https://waxonia.com/track/osibisa--sunshine-day/)

*1976 · Bronze · Picked by [1976](https://waxonia.com/theme/nineteen-seventy-six/)*

Ghanaian musicians in London making a record that got played on daytime radio without softening what it was. Included because the traffic went both ways in 1976, and this is the year's best evidence of it.
