This record was the scourge of UK club and pub discos that year. Note the all white 'Coconut Airways' flight crew and the two token black backing vocalists and the 'singer's' cod Jamaican accent. Truly bokeworthy...
So true lol, I was living in the Brixton mentioned in this song so Ive got quite strong memories of this -Brixton has a very high West Indian community
Nice feel good song - I can't see how anybody couldn't like this. BTW, I challenge anybody going to Barbados NOT to hum or sing this tune. Bet you can't help it ;-))
"I look up at de sky and I see de clouds...And I look down at de ground and I see de rain go down de drain" (LOL at the fake accent)
I bajan and i thought his accent was caribbean until i see him.

Great song. The singer looks seriously uncomfortable in this performance. A burst of sunshine from the mid-70s. Thanks for posting.

On the record of this song I was one of the people who sang 'whoa!'. I was a tape operator in Morgan Studios and worked on this record.
