i'm sorry for the kids today, for they will never know the innocence of that kind of life used to be like. I am so thankful and grateful that i was able to experience it.

Look at the full costumes they wore back then...Far more material than deh piece a string deh using nowadays and probably a lot cheaper.

@PAMITES Hey...Don't forget Eddie & the Movements aka. JAMBAND. just as influential in Eastern Caribbean music as Burning Flames. Burning Flames ignited the Rhythm Box revolution in Soca music but Jamband took it to another level. By 2000, almost all the islands in the Eastern Caribbean had band/s that were almost exact replicas of Jamband. They even went as far as adopting a trend that their band must have at least one lead singer that sounds just like Nick Friday.

EASILY THE BEST BAND THE CARIBBEAN HAS EVER PRODUCED ALONG WITH ELLIE MATT AND THE GI'S BRASS, 17 PLUS AND XTATIK
