I Don't Know How The Young Men Living - The Executor

I wanted to include some calypso this week as I love it's laid back accompaniment and social comment in the lyrics. I have a great album of calypso called Calypsos From Trinidad: Politics, Intrigue and Violence in the 1930's which I highly recommend, this is from that. Calypso, as well as being popular at carnival, was used to tell the news stories of the time in a way that the often illiterate working classes would understand - look at the song titles on that album to see the evidence: "Govenor's Resignation", "Treasury Scandal", "Shop Closing Ordinance"!
