4.0 out of 5 stars Fun Caribbean Party Music, July 6, 2001

This cover band does a great job with some old Caribbean classics! I enjoy the songs "River of Babylon" and "One Love". The steel band version of Guantanamera is terrific... but my all time favorite is cut #6 "Barbados"!!! It starts with the pilot from Coconut airways and the sound of a plane taking off! It's alot of fun and worth buying for that song alone... this CD is definately worth it!

This was expected to be 2 CDs of Steel Drums.
Instead, one of the CDs has no steel drums, just some stuff I was not interested about.

I'm very disappointed, thinking this was their way of getting rid of an unwanted CD, by packaging with something more interesting.

I love love love this compilation of Caribbean music! I grew up listening to this in my parents' car, and I know all the lyrics to each song by heart. The music is so fun to listen to, and it's always upbeat. So many memories with this cd...
