"ALWAYS MARRY A WOMAN UGLIER THAN YOU"
IVAN
CLAUDE (50’S/60’S)
Ivan Claude from Antigua and Barbuda wrote and performed the calypso song
"Always Marry A Woman Uglier Than You" back in the late fifties or
early sixties. Many Bahamians sang it here in The Bahamas. It was a great
success.
One day, not too long ago, Erskine was asked by a young Bahamian man: "How
can I find the right woman?!" He jokingly replied by saying: "Always
marry a woman uglier than you!" quoting from the old calypso song by Ivan
Claude.
Acoustic cover by guitarist/vocalist/songwriter Erskine Knowles from The
Bahamas.
Research and recording by Erskine's wife Fay, an author, long-time resident of
The Bahamas and originally from Scotland.
