Down Jamaica Way
Count Owen And His Calypsonians
Kalypso FR 1001
1960
Fun score today on an original copy of this album which features great art work and fun music. Is the banjo an instrument that one might expect to find on a 60s vintage Calypso record? I didn't expect it, but there is banjo work on every track.
Here's a webpage with more information on Count Owen.
BEAUTIFUL old cover and I can't even imagine banjo with calypso! How fabulous!
ReplyDeleteMento bands used the banjo as a rhythm instrument.
