This is the first time I am hearing about James 'Bassman' Jackman. The word impressed is not sufficient. Something about Desperadoes that seems to attract a special a unique kind of talent. Right up to today. I cannot put mind finger on it. Maybe its the majesty of the those enchanting hills. Can't say for sure.

This is Steel band music at it's best. The selections give one the an understanding of what the Steel band is capable of in the music environment

[@ernestjohnson8198]

The greatest steel orchestra in the world. been a #1 fan since 1966 when the band played at my school (Trinity) in 1966. a free concert was arranged by our principal as he was on the board of witco.when they changed sponsorship from coca-cola to witco. A number of instruments were donated to start the school's steel band still with the coca cola logo. Forever grateful for the music and gesture..
