We welcome back the Father of Modern Calypso--Mr. Irving Burgie to Time After Island Time. Irving Burgie, or as he is sometimes known Lord Burgess, wrote many classic songs of the Caribbean such as Day-O, Jamaica Farewell. Burgie composed some 34 songs for the Legendary Harry Belafonte including 8 of the 11 songs on Belafonte's classic Calypso album. From 1956 to 1957, "Calypso" was the first album of any kind to sell One Million copies. He also wrote songs for the Kingston Trio during the group's heyday.
