This song was released in 1986 when Bernard St. John was Prime Minister of Barbados. He was PM from March 1985 to May or June 1986 after the death of Tom Adams.
this song is so powerful it should be used as the template for Caribbean unity. He is actually telling West Indian people that it doesn't matter what part of the Caribbean you're from we can't compete with the other industrialized nations that we want to be friends with.
The Mighty CHALKDUST, Dr. Hollis Liverpool, teacher-lecturer, is a true calypso laurette of the Eastern Caribbean. A fine, marvelous song-anthem. I am well pleased to share similar Trini-Vinci roots like him. He collaborated with Chester Rogers who taught me an advanced Caribbean English course utilizing much West Indian patois-creole-pidgin english, poetry and lyrics. Inimitable, unique, self-actualized artiste --- par excellence.
My time in barbados. Chalkie u to good.
Who’s still listening to this masterpiece in 2020? Drop a ‘like’ for Chalkie #legend
