A list of Trinidadian music

Feb 11, 2007 08:52

I asked a new friend, Ayanna, who hails from Trinidad, to recommend me some music from her home. This is the list she gave me:

CLASSIC CALYPSO

The Mighty Sparrow
Lord Kitchenor

MODERN

Machel Montano
Shadow
Lord Relator

And try to find the "Dirty Jim" collection.

She also recommended the following books:

Anything by Jamaica Kincaid
A Brighter Sun by Samuel Selvon
Humming Bird Tree
Miguel Street/A House for Mr Biswas by VS Naipaul
My Mother who Fathered Me
Wide Sargasso Sea by Jean Rhys; &
Harriets Daughter
