It is hard for MOST PEOPLE to UNDERSTAND "THE CULTURE OF TRINIDAD" because they are not REAL TRINIDADIANS. And it is hard to KEEP ALL THE FACTS RELEVANT AT ONE TIME ... that is ANOTHER LIMITATION!!!
But THIS CALYPSO was ONE OF MY FAVOURITES OF ALL TIME, THEN ... and look where we are TODAY with THE SON!!!
I am SUPPORTING HIM!!!
