Favoriting Muriel's Treasure with Irwin: Playlist from April 11, 2007 Favoriting

Irwin's avatar View Irwin's profile Favoriting

An hour of vintage calypso, soca, mento, pan, and related Caribbean genres - and NO reggae (or Belafonte). Sexy and saucy, ribald and raunchy recordings from the 1920s to the 1980s, and occasionally later. Hear tropical and topical chunes from the Duke of Iron, Lord Kitchener, Wilmoth Houdini, The Mighty Sparrow, Lords Invader and Nelson, Atilla the Hun, Terror, Executor, King Radio, and other colorfully named calypsonians of yore. Hosted by the mythical Muriel and a white Jewish guy from the Jersey suburbs. Click here to visit the Muriel's Treasure blog. (Visit homepage.)

Dear Sir/Madam:
I am from Grenada originally and I am interesting in those vintage calypso songs by Small Island Pride, Sir Galba and Mighty Zebra. they were all Grenadian calypsoians and I want to do a historical research on those great men og the calypso art form from Grenada.
Keep up the good works you are doing by playing those old time calypso songs.
Keep up the good works you are doing.
