I very much like the Caribbean steel band calypso sound and although this song was actually written by Neil Diamond and it was a hit for English reggae band UB40 it certainly feels as though it belongs somewhere in the West Indies. Here’s a great steel drum version of -
Red Red Wine - performed by Dano’s Island Sounds…Dano is from San Diego, California…..
….and the UB40 version, live from Nelson Mandela 70th Birthday concert at Wembley Stadium, London in 1988.
