A MEDLEY OF CALYPSO SONGS!


Erskine Knowles singing and playing 
a medley of Calypso songs


“A Medley of Calypso Songs” is sung and played HERE by my husband Erskine on his guitar. This is another song from our Tiktok platform "youngheartsforever". These songs are folklore and quite old.

I often wonder how Erskine has such a good memory! He knows the words and music of hundreds of songs: Bahamian, Caribbean, Rhythm & Blues, Rock, Soft Rock, Romance, Blues, Country & Western, and so on!

He says he once had a book with 900 chords that he studied - "All kinds of chords". Along with the major and minor chords that he already knew, he learned 300 more but he says he hardly ever uses all of them. He could use them if he wanted to though and he does use a lot of them in songs.

Thank goodness Erskine has this remarkable memory as I am quite the opposite!
