Excellent song by The Roaring Lion.. Often imitated but never replicated..
Something of an early history of Trinidad J'ouvert and Carnival..
Not sure about exactly what year, but definitely 30's...

He made this song over at least 3 different times throughout his career. I love all of them but i like the from the 70's the music i can more relate too.

This is actually one of the greatest in terms of calypso and and its history. Always loved this song from the first time i heard it and was looking for it ever since.

Recorded in 1935. Impressive sound quality.

@Saturnome
I agree with you, these were usually recorded in New York so that would explain the sound quality..
