Yes, It is 2019, and the Mighty Sparrow will be 84 on July 9th! - and I am lucky enough to be playing trumpet in his band in New York City July 5, 2019 at Summerstage (Springfield Park - Queens), and July 6 at Joe’s Pub at the public Theater in NYC!) www.fearlessdreamer.com
My Mother was born in Trinidad,,and my Dad was a ww2 navy man stationed at the now closed Navy base in Trinidad,,where he married my Mom,,after the war my parents moved to Tampa. Florida,,we had alot of family in Trinidad and all the family would come visit and i remember as a kid them playing all Sparrow music at parties they threw at home, grew up listening to Sparrow,,and still love that music now in 2020,,will never forget those good times , with Sparrow playing on the record player,,,
Gregg I bet you and I would have a lot to talk about! My mother was also born in Trinidad, and she met my father in the mid to late 1950s, he was in the Navy stationed at the old base in Chaguaramas. I grew up listening to this music, my mother loved it, and every party we had when I was a kid had this great music as the soundtrack to it! We also lived in Central Florida (about 100 miles north of the Tampa Bay area) so it's probably safe to say we had a very similar upbringing! I grew up with this music and it sounds even better today, still fresh and brings back the most amazing memories also for me.
Before Sparrow flies away, he must be internationally acknowledged as one of the world's greatest Calypso artists, in the category of Belafonte and Marley. Greetings from Aruba!
🇹🇹 Kitchener, the greatest Calypsonian and Grandmaster of Calypso, Sparrow the King of Calypso, Lord Shorty the King and creator of Soca, Baron the King of Sweet soca music 🇹🇹🇹🇹 🇹🇹
Remember playing The Mighty Sparrow for my mum when was in hospital. Even though her eyes were closed she still managed to move her foot to the music. RIP mum😢
I was raised in Trinidad now living in Florida for over 50 years. I remember as a child about 6 years old singing Sparrow's Jean and Dina. I would get cafenol for singing his songs. I am now 75 and the music still sounds sweet today. He is the greatest to come out of Trinidad.
Anyone listening in 2020. I could think of no better artist than the one and only Slinger Francisco ORTT CMT OBE, better known as Mighty Sparrow, to cheer me up during the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic. As a child in Uganda 🇺🇬 in the 1979s, we played many songs of the Calypso King of the World to walk away our blues and bring a smile to our faces. My father had studied in the US 🇺🇸 in the late 1950s where he’d fallen in with Caribbean students who introduced him to the greatest Grenadian calypso vocalist, songwriter, and guitarist. As a student in the US 🇺🇸 in the 1990s, it was the Mighty Sparrow that partly kept me company as an undergrad and grad student. And now, so many years later, here I am in Tanzania 🇹🇿 returning to the old tunes of perhaps the best-known and most successful calypsonian. Hats off to the big man! Much love from out here across the oceans.
Well said. One of the greatest calypsonians of all time. But he is from Trinidad. I am from the Caribbean and I grew up listening to his songs Cheers from St. Lucia
When I was a little girl in school I used to be so protective of my teacher, fearing that the 🦎 lizard will go up her dress, when I grew up and had sex for the first time I realized that was the 🦎 lizard lol. Sparrow good but nasty as hell 💘 love de Sparrow
Grenada 🇬🇩 gave the World one of the G.o.a.t's of Calypso. Born in Grenada went to live in Trinidad at age 11 and the rest is a Legend!!! Montserrat 🇲🇸🇲🇸 🇲🇸 to Grenada and Trinidad, 2023 and beyond till infinity, Ase' Neteru Maat AmunRa, Namaste 🙏
@lenardbarzey2788 it just means he was a Trinidadian if he grew up in grenada he probably would of been planting yam somewhere 😅😅😅😅 he definitely wouldn't have been a calypsonian
By the grace of God I was fortunate to grow up (born late 60's) in the lower Caribbean surrounded by the sweet sounds of the Mighty Sparrow and his amazing contemporaries. The importance of music in maintaining a harmonious and civil society is so underrated it can only be fully understood through a reflection of those of us who have lived through Calypso's renaissance. Be it Barbados, Grenada, St. Lucia, TnT, etc. where I've lived or visited (thx LIAT) in my younger years had that common mysticism of happiness and joy. It's no coincidence that music is the foundation of our peaceful and loving culture. I suggest we don't let this music, our dialects and story telling disappear. We need it to maintain our cultural identity.
I listen Mighty Sparrow music in the 60s and 70s when I was in Guyana I now live in the US and listen to calypso cannot live without it it's in my bones live Caribbean die Caribbean
Thank You Trinidad & Tobago . You received my family from British Honduras in 1961. We had experienced Hurricane Hattie. Thank you. My favourite till today.. "Kuychulea" (sp).when I can have it. And Sir, (Sparrow. One day I come back! ) "Johnny" . I am 70 yrs
My folks came to England in '62 from home, carrying some children, suitcases and a clutch of Sparrow albums. Everything that's Trini, tunes that are timeless.. "Mighty Mighty"
Grooving to these tunes with my folks early morning here in London UK!! My mum is from Grenada and I just randomly selected this playlist. She had me gobsmacked when she came wining her waist into the room singing all the lyrics off by heart! Thank you for posting this! 🕺❤
Growing up in Grenada during the 80's I was used to waking up early to my mother singing Sparrow songs while preparing breakfast.Myself and the other neighbourhood hoods sang them too.All we knew was that Sparrow was born in Grenada and known as the calypso king of the world.I never understood what an icon this man was until years later.
My dad's favourite...The Mighty Sparrow. He would come dancing into the kitchen in his shirtjack and shorts. Miss him so so much..and my dear land of Guyana! Long live on the music of the Sparrow ..a musical legend!
I will never forget his concert in Montserrat at the tomato factory in 1973. I was 17 jumping the fence ripped my pants on barbed wires to see his show. The greatest. Senor Sparrow. The maestro.❤
I am a Jamaican and a former party animal in the 80s and the 90s eventhough we had a lot of really great dance hall icons then but I must consede that no party or dance didn't complete with out the mighty sparrow him tune up vibes Respect to my Trinidadian brothers and sisters.

It always amazed me how Grenadians and Trinidadians fought for this man.....until we realized it had plenty sparrow to go around .
I'm listening. No matter what year.
I always get homesick when I listen to these old time calypsos...it always reminds me of a great people I came out from!!!

Long live Sweet Soca!!🕺🏾💃🏾🕺🏾💃🏾🕺🏾💃🏾
I listen to this every week with my grandma and she literally sings every word and rocks to it so happily, mentioning memories of my Grandad throughout! I now know every song too! 😂 Love it! ❣️
Calypso music is what sets the party on fire in the 70s ,80s and 90s. And it is still one of the top music in the world today 06 -09 -2020.
I grew up in the 50's his music was always heard at our House on a Sunday, my step-dad would play his music, and we would dance in the Living-Room. MEMORIES.
Shake and shake its good exercise come on you can do it 😅
My Uncle died, and The Mighty Sparrow was his favourite Calypsonian.
We are playing his music at his REPASS.
Corona Virus can never stop my greatest hit. Reminds me on my mum..💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓

Sparrow is truly the best. There is no one like Sparrow. I love Harry Belafonte but Sparrow is the best.

as a Grenadian myself, its so nice to have a star from my country so I can listen to his music and say, "yeah man thats home"
nothing come close to some good old times soca
Sparrow grew up in T&T, he is all & all a Trini just birth in Grenada !
Nah he's a trini we already claimed him since he first started xD
@@Cxnvict yes but he born in grenada sooo i doh care
@@sevewonn8567 bro what kinda logic is dat
@@KiddSteely I agree with you that he is Grenadian. All the spice tea Sparrow got as a child helped developed his voice.
we love this music too en El salvador and central america.
