Mighty Sparrow

Mighty Sparrow is a solo artist associated with GD whose catalog here spans 2002–2002. The artist is connected with Calypso, so genre, period and individual recordings offer useful ways into the work.

Listen for how Calypso shape rhythm, voice and arrangement. A starting path includes “Village Ram”, “Bongo”. Then move to “Trojan Calypso Box Set” and “Sparromania! (Wit, Wisdom And Soul From The King Of Calypso 1960-1976)” to hear how recordings are organized in a release context.
