Everytime I listen to this "chune," it brings back my boyhood days in Antigua. I visualize a man named Hambone pelting blows to the timbales in Harmonites Steel Orchestra; while he was sweating and spitting. I can visualize all the dreadlocks in the rhythms section with the cowbells. I can visualize all the church people, who looked down on pan men. But as Destra said, "It is in my blood, in my veins, can't wash it out. I am forever stained."
This song takes me back to the late 80's early 90's listening to calypso on 100.1fm on a saturday and afterwards blasting the David Rudder lp on the turntable....
