EVEN SOME OF US WHO ARE NOT FROM TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO consider T&T one of the Meccas of Cricket in the West Indies, and definitely the Mecca of Steelband and Calypso. In our program this time around, we present some of the Calypsoes about Cricket over the years, and we end with three of the giants of pan music - Robert Greenidge, Ken Philmore and Earl Brooks - play some popular Calypso tunes :
