Alvin, this is the best of the best and it should be taught in schools. Many thanks to Lord Relator for his creative rendition of all the volume of lyrics. 😘😘😘👏👏👏
Although not declared official road marches...songs like Fire Fire in she Wire by Calypso Rose, Garrot Bounce by Nelson, Archie Brek Them Up from the US Virgin Islands and Come leh we go Suki by the Guyanese King fighter have all stood the test if time and are more remembered than some official road marches in the 1960s!
Uncle Alvin!!! You have done it now- the Road March 🏆- the most popular song during Carnival Monday & Tuesday!!! You are taking all of us down memory lane!!! You are going back to Colonialism- Tubal Uriah "Buzz" Butler (1897-1977), Andrew Cipriani, Edward Beetham....
The 1980s' for a time belonged to Austin Lyons "Blue Boy"- Soca Baptiste (1980), Ethel (1981) & "Rebecca" (1983). The late Seadley Joseph (1943-2013) had "Deputy" 1982 Road March 🏆- (he would win the Calypso Monarch 1984 with "Soft Man" & the Social Commentary "We Living In Jail"- which is relevant in today's society in Trinidad 🇹🇹. Crazy had "Succoyant" (1985). The sound changed once again. 1986-1990 belonged to Pelham Goddard, David Michael Rudder, Christopher " Tambu" Herbert & the brass band Charlie's Roots. The Mighty Duke- Kelvin Pope (1932-2009) who won the Calypso Monarch from 1968-1971 (during Black Power in T &T) won with "Thunder" (1987). By 1991 Blue Boy changed and his sobriquet (trade name) was now Super Blue 🔵 💙. He had "Get Something & Wave" 1991 Road March 🏆 (my favorite after Soca Baptiste). He won again with "Jab Jab" in 1992 & "Bacchanal Time" in 1993. Preacher had "Jump Up & Wave" (1994 Road March 🏆). Lord Shorty (1941-2000) had issues with this song- he didn't like the direction Soca music 🎶 was going- (interview with Harold Pysadee in 1995). I am jumping a little bit here- Shadow won his final Road March 🏆 in 2001 with "Stranger". Sorry for being the "eager beaver" 🦫 uncle Alvin 😂
I'm trying to locate the roadmarch " Fire Brigade Water de Road, MaMa George Street burning down" in English. I'm seeing a versions in Patois on RUclips . Could you help with a likn? Thanks.

I was born in 1970, i remembered all the songs by heart from 1974
These calypsoes brought back memories from years gone by.Thank you so much.
Relator, know all the songs, my mother would say I used to hear all them songs when I was a child.
This particular video will go down in history... Words cannot describe this ... Thank you Mr Daniel.

Thanks Alvin for sharing this! Your videos have been a tremendous resource in learning about calypso! Best regards from Amsterdam by the way of India!
It’s the man in the orange shorts with the rhythm on the rum bottle
Quality video once again. Thanks for making these.
Run yuh Run in 1940 was a remake from the early 1910s to 1920s...what they didn't say is that is was changed from Kaiser Wilhelm to Adolf Hitler
I will really like to do 1993-2021 , if I can get the opportunity.
