Montserrat Volcano 1-7-07 2 Days Before Evacuation
Loading...
Uploaded by 2whiteroses on Jan 8, 2007
Soufriere Hills Volcano as seen from Old Towne, the Vue Pointe Hotel, Bishops View, and the MVO. The first two locations are in areas that are to be manditorily evacuated by 1-9-07. This is the mountain Jimmy Buffet was viewing when he wrote "Volcano" at Air Studios in Montserrat in 1979. It was not active then....

Canada does not celebrate ST.Patricks day by having a holiday on March 17

This isnt even proper Irish music some americans singing what the think Irish music is.

@Shells969 You just answered your own statement - Emerald Isle!!! Like Ireland, it's because the coastline looked similar. If you lived there you would surely know that?

Shots taken from Bishop's View Road (minute 2:38) are close to my house Villa Evermay built by my parents in '76 and often rented to Air Studios from '79 to '89. Jimmy Buffet's group stayed at the house in '79 while recording. The Climax Blues Band also stayed at the house while on Montserrat recording the LP Real to Reel - on the inside cover is a photo taken from the balcony at sunset where the band and crew had set up tables and furniture for dinner. Three miles from the volcano dome, btw.

OK, You asked for a change of music, so maybe this is a better choice... As previously mentioned, YouTube prevented us from using "Back To the Island" by Toots and the Maytals, so we had to choose something of theirs.... It looks like they've added many more choices since we originally posted, so here's a reggae alternative to the Irish sounding diddy. And this one is appropriately entitled for Montserrat, "You Just Can't Keep Me Down."

I used to live there. It was called the Emerald Isle.
But I don't know why they would play a song like this here, it is totally misplaced. Reggae or calypso or steel drum would be more appropriate.

@Shells969 During your time living on The Rock, you must not have absorbed the Irish connection the island has. It's the only place outside of Ireland to celebrate St. Patrick's Day as a national holiday.... Hence the music.... Actually, we originally had Buffett's "I Don't Know Where I'm Going to Go When the Volcano Blows," (which Buffett wrote on island for his Volcano LP recorded at George Martin's Montserrat Air Studios) for the music, but YT removed it....
