I was in Trinidad in the 1950's and was surprised how much they were influenced by USA black Jazz bands Calypso was what we would call the Jungle Telegraph Many musicians tried to play the saxophone to emigrate but some stayed home this is a memory of Calypso Jazz recordings now dumped in the sea   Keywords: Jazz Saxophone Trinidad West Indies Tropical Black Negro Slaves steel drums saxophones Calypso tourism travel censorship original unique historical memory fresh The first identifiably calypso genre song was recorded in 1912, by Lovey's String Band while visiting New York City. In 1914, the second calypso song was recorded, this time in Trinidad, by chantwell Julian Whiterose, better known as the Iron Duke and a famous calinda stick-fighter Calypso evolved into a way of spreading news around Trinidad. Politicians, journalists and public figures often debated the content of each song, and many islanders considered these songs the most reliable news source. Calypsonians pushed the boundaries of free speech as their lyrics spread news of any topic relevant to island life, including speaking out against political corruption. Eventually British rule enforced censorship and police began to scan these songs for damaging content. Countless recordings were dumped at sea in the name of censorship, although in truth, rival US companies did this in the spirit of underhanded competition. This is my memory of this Jaz
