Mitchum, Robert -Calypso Is Like So...
NEW VINYL LP ON RUMBLE 2011.
Everybody's favorite noir anti-hero and aw shucks gambling fool was also one genuine helluva singer. Mitchum brought the same stoned 'n' relaxin swagger to his music as he did his movie roles, & could do either a ballad or a hot number justice. This fantastic calypso record (complete with fake Trinidadian accent) is perfectly respectable for those who like Lord Kitchener and not just kitsch. And should you be furnishing a bachelor pad, you won't wanna miss the story of the girl who pickpockets a watch and then hides it up her cooch when the cops show up in 'Tic Tic Tic'. Tracklisting: Jean and Dinah, From a Logical Point of View, Not Me, What Is Generation Coming To, Tic Tic, Beauty Is Only Skin Deep, I Learn a Merengue Mana, Take Me Down to Lover's Row, Mama Looka Boo Boo, Coconut Water, Matilda Matilda, The Dance All Night, The Ballad of Thunder Road, My Honey's Lovin Arms.
