Mighty Sparrow - Great Calypsoes
Review by David Norwood
Great Calypsoes by Mighty Sparrow is a classic album that showcases the best of the calypso genre. The Trinidadian artist's unique style and witty lyrics are on full display in this collection of songs, which includes some of his most famous hits.
From the upbeat and infectious "Jean and Dinah" to the more contemplative "Congo Man," Mighty Sparrow's vocal range and versatility are impressive. His ability to seamlessly blend social commentary and humor is a hallmark of his work, and is especially evident in tracks like "Kennedy and Khrushchev" and "No, Doctor, No."
The album also features collaborations with other prominent calypso artists, including Lord Melody and Lord Kitchener. The result is a cohesive and entertaining collection of songs that captures the spirit of Trinidadian culture and the calypso tradition.
