Terrific cover image (I think there was a later pressing of this album with a different cover). I could see having a few drinks in the lounge while this grouped knocked out a set or two.

  1. Oh yes. drinks in the lounge on a TROPICAL ISLAND with that nice vacation sunburn glow and white clothes to show it all off. I love the whole scenario....I was a heavy duty sun worshiper until I started to spend thousands on collecting ink art and then you can't really lay in the sun because you fade your expensive ink....I just love steel drums but this, with the lyrics, is way too insane! HA!
