This is not the glossy, occasionally dross calypso that entertains tourists or wins Calypso King competitions. It is more rustic in flavor, speaks more to non-urban audiences and is accompanied only by guitar, banjo and marimba. There's a bit of magic here that your average "Tourist Joe" wouldn't get to see.
