RELEASE DATE

The calypso music that was popularized in the '50s was made exclusively by men for a long time, but if there is one queen of the style, it is
Calypso Rose
. Life hasn't always been easy for the Tobagonian diva, and while she praises a discourse of peace, she remains engaged, condemning social unfairness and the unjust status of women. This all is joyfully sung against a musical background of pure calypso, ska, and soca. After a long career during which she was written more than 800 songs, the dynamic singer, 76 years old at the time of this release, returns with
Far From Home
, produced by
Ivan Duran
and featuring the guitar and voice of
Manu Chao
on three tracks. Two 10"s in gatefold sleeve with CD.
