…and now for something completely different…
This is Calypso, you already know ? sure you do but really ?
Calypso is more than meets the ear, Duke, Canary,
Fighter and Blakie explain.
tracks;
1 The Mighty Duke – What is Calypso ?
2 The Mighty Duke – Woman baccanal
3 Canary – Beatnik generation
4 Canary – Tribute to Luther King
5 Fighter – What you sow you reap
6 Fighter – Pom pom
7 Fighter – Send me instead
8 Blakie – Monica
9 Blakie – We ain’t going back again
10 The Mighty Duke – Send them girls by me
Great record Moos. King Fighter was from Guyana and Canary may have been also (if he and Guyana’s Lord Canary are the same artist). Trinidadians Blakie and The Mighty Duke have passed on (Duke died last year),but their legacies are secure.
Thanks again,
