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...

  • 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..

  • love this song! also trying to find the remix that machel came out with in the early 2000's.

  • amazing song, more soul than you can find anywhere else
