A Mighty Sparrow interview that proved very prophetic.
Man start to sing on spot and is like you listening to the record yes.
A cracked up at the end with the word association game, presenter said "Harry Belafonte" Sparrow answer "commercial". Could not have said it better.

The one and only... The Roaring Lion.
This is a video

A tribute to the Roaring Lion held in 1994 in New York, very sad and embarrassing remarks at the end. At 87 he was ever the entertainer.

Rovin, you bring back some great memories with Becket their boss.
Especially Calypso Noel, for me personally, anytime I think of Christmas back home, that song comes to mind.
I remember my mother (who isn't really into calypso) LOVED that song, every Christmas when it was playing on the radio or TV, she would just sing it to the top of her voice.

Great stuff man.

I found this classic Trini Christmas tune from the Mighty Spoiler, its very funny

I also came across this article, it is long read but excellent info:
