ROBERT MITCHUM
-Calypso Is Like So...
NEW LP
REISSUE
Label: Rumble Records
LP 140 gram
While filming in Trinidad in 1957, Robert Mitchum soaked up local music talent like Lord Melody and Mighty Sparrow, resulting in this amazing experiment of pure Caribbean calypso in which the number one icon of Hollywood coolness insists on imitating the broken English of many of the original calypso artists (this is "dis" and "the" is often dropped), while singing a bunch of traditional Caribbean songs (complete with the requisite steel drums, congas and backing horns) along with a few Elvis-styled rockers.
Includes 2 rockabilly bonus tracks the artist recorded in 1958.
1) Jean And Dinah
2) From A Logical Point Of View
3) Not Me
