From the 1950's compilation album "Calypso Fever - From Trinidad to London", here is my earliest tune from Trinidad All Stars, Lord Kitchener's "Trouble in Arima". This compilation was recorded between 1950 and 1953.

Hi Glenroy, Such a simple tune yet dressed up so nicely with Tenor Improv eh? This is earlier than anything I have. The tenor player reminds me of Neville Bornaparte (Southern Symphony) I notice on the LP cover my mentors name Shake Keane (the greatest Jazz Trumpet/Flugelhorn player to come out of the west indies (we are both from St Vincent). I followed his trail right up to my Jazz/Rock retirement. See Demon Fuzz or paddy corea (google it)

Does anyone know the name of the lead tenor man, Is it Mr. Jules?
