I waved lead flag for Pandemonium on J'ourvert morning after the loss to Renegades in 1988, and the only thing more powerful than the spirit of the playing was the mood of the people on the road: "Dey tief youall, but play fuh we, play fuh we!". Bradley had everyone by the balls with the bridge in the middle. Bands were parting for us from Jerningham Avenue all the way to Independence Square. I got home a 11 am, then back to the streets in half a costume! What a life!
Im not an expert in pan but a fan. To me all the arrangers have their voice and u hear it in every arrangement. Im an all stars pan jumbie/junkie and smooth is the man. But i judge a classic by after you listen to it two or three days after you repeating note for note like it stick in your head and this arrangement is one of those. Everytime I hear it it stick in my head.
Thank you very much for posting this. I've been listening to this for the last fifteen or so years. One of my favorite Bradley arrangements of all time.
Belmont was in full force that year, it came down to Phase II and "Pandy". We in we all black rocking the northstand and grandstand, think we was easy to deal wit!
Panorama is hard to judge. Somebody always claims to be robbed. Thanks to UA-cam you can always listen to a piece and come to your own conclusion. Instead of making a fuss simply to the arrangement and enjoy it.
This was a clear winner. I was a youth and could remember Bradley first using the SHRILL effect on the pan by turning the tenor sticks around and using the end without the rubber. It was a high pitch continuous sounding effect. Check 3.50mins on this recording. Very creative and innovative that's the man Bradley. Fertrin Pandemonium was a very young band just off the queens park savannah and at that time would have been difficult or unheard of much less coming first.
Everytime i hear this Bradley arrangement I wish Pandemonium had better pans and better playing technique. It would have truly gone down as one of the best panorama arrangements. Just my opinion.
oh my days this is the best .....they were robbed big time reminds me of pan in a minor by renegades they were robbed too ........this tune sounds awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
sir Clive is the only a ranger with depths and a story ...boogie zanda and their is an old guy that's strange for a small band call musical gem I forgot his name but he is very deadly also.all the arrangers is fine but to carry pan further it got to be orchestrated..sir Clive told me that 1999
well they even throw bottles of water while as the start to try and distract us.....Emagine we played that Syrian song with mesmerizing discipline and they placed us 2nd.

Again brilliant from Bradley should have won again his music is amazing. I know many of you loved Woman is boss, but give this a chance.

People always saying oh this band got robbed just enjoy d music and hush woman is boss was a phenomenal tune
Brings joyful tears to my eyes. Thanks so much for posting. One of the best arrangements ever.
Always felt this tune should have won Panorama that year
Clive Bradley at his best Fertrin Pandemonium should of won Panorama 1988, That arrangement still one of the greatest ever heard musically.
thank you very much for posting this tune by Pandemonium... that was great!!!
My daughter Keela was oy 12 when she played here. Holy Name Convent POS.
One of my all time favorites
Belmont was in full force that year, it came down to Phase II and "Pandy". We in we all black rocking the northstand and grandstand, think we was easy to deal wit!
I was in the Savannah that night, pure music plus Boogsie with Woman is Boss WOW

@islandrocketman Phase II won in 1988 with Woman is Boss

Jerry Dolabaille Bradley was the first to do that? Wow...didnt know. Good info!
Prior to Fertrin, when they first came out in the early 70's they were known as Huggins Pandemonium.
Geniousness yes!
SWEET!!!!!!!!!
Everytime i hear this Bradley arrangement I wish Pandemonium had better pans and better playing technique. It would have truly gone down as one of the best panorama arrangements. Just my opinion.
Could You imagine Desperadoes playing that arrangement????? The high tonal quality of they possess and panmanship.
weather it should have won or not//// its a great tune right up there with curry tabanca pan by storm, pan in a minor etc
oh my days this is the best .....they were robbed big time reminds me of pan in a minor by renegades they were robbed too ........this tune sounds awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They were robbed. But it was 1986 so somebody playing the hammer had to win
this piece is a classic from master sir clive bradley, one of the best in pan history. they should've won panorama 1988. GREAT IS BRADLEY
Thanks to pan musical genius Clive Bradley. May he be elevated
The inimitable MR. Bradley.
The Inimitable Clive Bradley
sir Clive is the only a ranger with depths and a story ...boogie zanda and their is an old guy that's strange for a small band call musical gem I forgot his name but he is very deadly also.all the arrangers is fine but to carry pan further it got to be orchestrated..sir Clive told me that 1999
Aye. This is not the song by Christopher Cross. It's a different song with the same name but sung by The Mighty Trini
She played tenor.
3:27 jam to sweet background jamming
isdepanin me i have a question for you the panorama champions on calypso showcase you have 84 to 87 uploaded cause i cant see it thanks
My last Panorama but Phase 2 was hard to beat and I don't even like them.
@islandrocketman how did u lose to renegades when phase ii win in 88 with woman is boss?? explain tht
alvin they had everything but the bassline that bradley music depends on.
The 15 people who disliked is despers fans lol
how this didn't win boy hmmm
well they even throw bottles of water while as the start to try and distract us.....Emagine we played that Syrian song with mesmerizing discipline and they placed us 2nd.
+Ghifari X Syrian Song?
@@sbhawanie69 The Mighty Trini is Syrian
talltrini10 He was born in Trinidad. He is a Trinidadian
this was the baaaaaaad one the old pan kill we though, else it was win all the way, my band Phase win anyway
Not the whole song but.....CHUNE FADDER!!!
No way they should have lost to Phase II that year
Woman was the boss that year because that was boosy best
This and Curry Tabanca in 87 was the biggest robberies in Panaroma.
talltrini10 pan by storm Ken and fonclair biggest robbery ever
Pan by Storm semi finals was a winning piece but they faltered in the finals just like phase II playing I music
The only reason this tune did not win, was the 1950s pan they played with........sorry!
and the start !
