i was born on this beautiful island of Trinidad, now i've been living in England since i was 7 years old,, back in 1990, i have'nt visited Trinidad, since year 2000, seeing videos like this makes me homesick.. i remember hearing songs like this when i was a child..
Shadow is the greatest. His ability to stay relevant in so many different eras of calyso/soca...never changing his style much or compromising his artistic integrity is admirable
One of my favourite artistes Always has a story. And the Brass and the bass. Wow. Gotta love The Mighty Shadow. Oh yeah used to see him when he came to collect his daughter in primary school in the 80's. Big figure all in black. With the hat and all.
the legend, the boss, the best, he never got his due and was not by the ones with the power but his music reveals the hate they had for him and the music, he died and just like he said in his song '' deh sticking '' they did exactly what his lyrics said, you were robbed of your due many times over but one thing they could take was your belief and so your music lives on and will outlive them also
