    i am a calypso fan from Wales and visited Trini twice...the locals were so amazed and proud that i had traveled so far to pay homage to their culture and i received only a good reception where ever i went,including jouvert morning fete in st.james.

    Swallow does look like Billy Ocean, like he should be singing 'Caribbean Queen!'! That's a compliment. Billy is a good-looking man for an older dude!

    I'm from Nigeria, right now in Bonny Island. I'm a very very good fan of Mighty Sparrow, I love all his calyso musics and his gospelypso. Grand master Lord Kitchener and Lord Blakie are also my favourites. For sure this guys are the king of calypso and they will live forever because you can"t get anybody close to comparing to them. My greatsest wish is to meet them all in person some day. Long life you all.

    The performance on this Video way back in 1985 was the influences for tourism and a safe friendly Trinidad & Tobago for the world to see. That,s the T&T I left behind in 1970 and did not ever returned. Regretful I may be, Has T&T retain its friendly and socially integrated cultural atmosphere now, in comparison to way back then? I wondered! I am absorbed into listening to the songs, seeing the audience and the location and feeling the rhythm of T&T. This is a great audio visual visit.

    La musica calypso (calipso in italiano) è un genere musicale che appartiene alla cultura afroamericana delle isole dei Caraibi. Questo genere nasce a Trinidad agli inizi del '900. Si ritiene che le sue origini vadano ricercate nei metodi di comunicazione usati tra gli schiavi nelle piantagioni. Successivamente all'importazione, da parte dei francesi, del Carnevale nell'isola, il Calypso venne utilizzato come elemento folcloristico e così aumentò la sua popolarità, che esplose dopo l'abolizione della schiavitù nel 1834.
    La musica Calypso fu spesso censurata, soprattutto dai Britannici, a causa del suo contenuto politico e di forte protesta, spesso scomodo alle autorità: i "Calypsos" infatti denunciavano spesso le tragiche condizioni in cui lavoravano o vivevano e i politici corrotti. Ma la censura non li fermò e, anzi, aumentò il loro desiderio di ribellione.
    Il Calypso esplose come genere nel 1956 quando Harry Belafonte, soprannominato appunto "Re del Calypso", utilizzando una variante più attenuata, e quindi più commercializzabile del genere, pubblicò nel suo disco Calypso una riedizione di Banana Boat Song, una canzone tradizionale giamaicana, che ebbe subito molto successo.
