Title Note

Recording information: 1957 - 1971.

Ensemble: The WIRL All Star Steel Band.

The steel drum, or pan, has been a staple of the Jamaican music scene since its first appearance in the 1930s. Often seen as a tourist clich‚, the instrument gets an intriguing second look in this compilation of classic steel drum tracks by a half-dozen of the most popular Jamaican orchestras of the 1950s and '60s. Songs like the traditional "Yellow Bird" and "Big Bamboo" are given mellifluous workouts by the West India Regiment Steel Band and the WIRL All Star Steel Band, but the highlight here is a wonderfully chaotic version of "The Magnificent Seven," complete with high-life rhythm and cowboy whoops.
