    Remembering him back in the 70's at the Windward Passage Hotel , St Thomas were I was bartending. All the Calypso Stars would be staying at the hotel. Duke,Rose, Francine Obstinate and many others would be at the bar. It was Amazing ❤ 🎶💃🌴🥰

    The greatest "double ententre" Calysonian of all time.He was the brother of Michael Anthony (a famous Trinbagonian Historian) .Gypsy and David Rudder were among the "backup singers".

    Brilliant! It would be wonderful if school children across the Caribbean could take this song and remake based on each island's history. Then share the results throughout the region.

    • @kennethlincoln6777
      @kennethlincoln6777 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Chalkie,why haven't you let your million of fans know of your growing up on Quevedo cir rd.John John?! When would you tell them that the M tattoo encircled on your arm is for Milwaukee and not Marabunta?Our very colorful history must include its good,the bad and the ugly;we have always been a frank comment people. Please do the right thing!!! 

    • @kennethlincoln6777
      @kennethlincoln6777 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Why must I be the one to enjoin your narrative to include what you have left out?I am not the famous public person that you are.Please do the right thing.After all it's you who choose to admonish all those who betray the public trust.Come on now,Mr Frank Comment, you are trusted to honestly reveal.A psycho Dr. usually find a common trait with the patient to identify with;it helps to build integrity.And a very good start is in personal revelations! In the future please do what the courageous ones have always done,an introspective house cleaning.aka crim/bad seed/barefoot son..

      @kennethlincoln6777 8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Chalkie,while others challenged your scholarly position/opinions I don't have the skills of such. However,my facts,integrity, and most of all our youthful relationships qualifies me to say the things I have lovingly stated about you.
      History demands of others more than what it has gotten from its authors .And this is my way of joining the conversation. Kenneth Lincoln aka.Criminal/Crim/Bad seed/seed p.s. Loyal to the "Pound."
