As a Jamaican who was introduced to Shadow as my first point of contact with Calypso, I am compelled to comment here of my long time love and appreciation for the greatest, Mighty Shadow ... Will continue to play his music, often, as I've done religiously for decades 🖤
One cannot live without Calypso music 🎶🎶❣️ that makes sense and retrieving mind fact of living experiences of living life what's going on who da wha dat ya blood clat Trinidad tells it's tales of living and history of life remember
So sorry he’s gone, so happy to have lived to enjoy his artistry. He was one of the major reasons why I one day back in the early 90’s boarded a trans Atlantic plane to carnival Trinidad.
I remembered when the mighty shadow sang BASSMAN. My husband used to make steel pan in a little village in central .. namely ORANGE FIELD RD CARAPICHAIMA.. My husband gathered all the youths who was interested in learning to play steel pan.. he made the pans with his 2 hands while I looked on.. All this preparation was to build a steel band to play the mighty shadow song BASSMAN.. They practice that song day and night until they got it right :) They did got it right ; he named the band PLAY BOY'S! I SWORE I REALLY HEARD A BASEMAN IN MY HEAD :) The Mighty Shadow music is UNIQUE.. His arrangement was from the spirit.. I believe he loved music from his soul.. DID I MENTION WE WON THE COMPETETION WITH BASSMAN..WE DID! WINSTON BAILEY (aka) the MIGHTY SHADOW.. MAY YOUR UNIQUE MUSICAL SOUL SLEEP IN PEACE!!!!! TRINIDAD&TOBAGO need to start recognizing the veterans of CALYPSO before they say good bye to the world.. let them see their legacy not after they gone.. YOU LIVED YOUR DREAM WINSTON BAILEY!
Continue to sleep in peace Shadow. You were my introduction into Calypso music and there has been no turning back since. Thank you for the great music. Much love, gratitude and appreciation❤
Omar Muhammad ...Amen!!somebody other than me said it....de man is ah boss with that, when ah listening to his music ah does be picturing the scene playing out and smiling away REL MEDITAION AND KIX😅😃
I was in Carriacou when i heard de sad news!! The man who brought ah real AFRICAN VIBES and originality to calypso music. Will be sadly missed!! RIP BIG BROTHER>>
I was visiting K.H. Recording Studios from Canada with Byron Lee back in 1975 the first time I heard Shadow. He was laying the basic tracks for "Bassman" His bass arrangements were so uniquely different and off the wall that I became fascinated and followed him from the till this day. His song "Povety is a Crime". Is one of the all time very best songs ever written and performed in any rhythm
Not many can write lyrics as profound, meaningful and soul searching as the Shadow. Then to mate great lyrics with an infectious rhythm is truly special. The Shadow could do it all. Conferring a Doctorate Degree on him was well earned. We will miss you Dr. Bailey. ---R.I.P
Music well put together man good soca good jam people get up and dance feel the spirit we love Mighty Shadow no one like you could jam that music so ❤❤❤😊
Still listening to his music 2023 wow awesome 💯 👍 I am one of his fans play the music man good spirit good vibes a legend a Icon what can I say RIP my Brother❤
I have bin a Mighty Shadow fan from the beginning. I have much of his music. He also revolutionized the Calypso and Soca music along with the Mighty Sparrow and many others. He also hand his own unique style.
IF YOU ARE A SOCA / KAISO / CALYPSO FAN & YOU DON'T LOVE WINSTON BAILEY BACK CATALOG OF MUSIC.... WELL WELL WELL. WICKED SELECTION *SOCA HUB* 💚💛❤️🖤🧡💙💜💖💝
I enjoyed the Tribute the gave to you, but TnT need to show honor to our Artistes before they leave tbis earth, so they can feel appreciated. Sorry he never felt the love we had for him. I know he knows it now. May you Rip now. One love, my Shsdow.
He like salt, necessary for anything to taste good. Now we have to learn to eat without the salt... Rest In Power Dr. Mighty Shadow. The genuine article, your light shone bright and long. You will be remembered for generations to come.
Thank you for your Journey. You shared a refreshingly different style of Calypso, yet delivered the stories and lessons in Lyric and crisp clear instrumentation. Always remembered the days at Lisner Auditorium, I worked as an Usher in 1980s. Still enjoying your art and craft in March 2022, from Lagos.
Beautiful mix. Just needed to point out that the song ot 38:25 was not the late Mighty Shadow but a very good imitator Pilot. Blessed love everyone. Stay safe 🙏🏿
It’s 2024 and this is still amazing
