It is a nostalgic recount of the sight and sounds of my birthplace. The energy, creativity, and the diversity of our people. In retrospect, it also brings the sadness of our present relationships with one another. The world today, is filled with distorted human behaviour. influenced by financial and material acquisition. Sad travesty from lost humility.Thanks for sharing.
@fuzzybearphoto Yes others have remarked the same. I'm going to find some period pan music and mix it with an ambient carnival track and post it again. Thanks for your comment! A carnival video would be horrid to watch without a soundtrack.
Robbie H. Relax! This is a silent 8mm film. Of course it's not the right music. When I get around to it I will find some 1957 music to put in. Go have a rum and coke and calm down for Christ's sake.
It was filmed in 1957 but the steel band is not playing a 1957 calypso,that song is sounding so new as a Stalin calypso and it sound so much as "I feelin to party I feelin too dance ,dance,what happened Sparrow was not around at that time ?
It's Stalin's "Black Man Feeling to Party". ..." Stop all housework you doing / Tonight we going and have some fun / Make sure the children OK/ We not coming home until morning come.Tonight the Black Man feeling to party etc...
How could I have forgotten the title of that song! it was played at my wedding! thanks! still i wonder who put that video together of the 1950's with that song?

Pretty good quality for the time.
fuzzybearphoto has it spot on. btw wonderful posts of the old days!
Yes I do.
You can get "Jean and Dinah" played by a steelband on the road. That's the year before, 1956. It's on U-tube, a Cook recording.
Was the music grafted in? This is not 1950s music.

This was 1958...
George Bailey produced "Of Pagan History"...
vintage !
The tune is by Black Stalin: "Black Man Come out to Party". In 1957 the drumset was not invvented yet.
Hey that song the steel band playin' is a song from the 1990's 2000's, "This is my time for jammin' " try puttin some real pan recordings from 1957!
