Raw Kaiso 1

Description

This is a musical story of three men, two of whom I grew up on in the early Sixties in Trinidad: The Mighty Zandolie and Lord Blakie. The two original 'rude bwoys.' Blakie, the street-smart, urban warlord, and Zando, aptly described as 'phallic to the bone,' the country gigolo. The third man, Black Prince, with whom I became acquainted a few years ago at the Spektakula Forum Calypso Tent, is the wandering troubadour, the blues singer. He is a piece of the other two in the sense that he captures the grassroots soul of both urban and country Trinidad. Calypso is an art form filled with diverse characters. In this collection we present three men who belong to a time of few inhibitions, no 'political correctness,' just raw feelings, vivid paintings of our life and times, off-the-cuff love-it-or-leave-it stuff. In other words . . . RAW to the bone. --David RudderThis product is manufactured on demand using CD-R recordable media. Amazon.com's standard return policy will apply.
