Today, while listening to Mr. Desmond and Kenny Phillips on Wack Radio, a caller asked about a Black Stalin tribute melody recently played on the station. Mr. Desmond mentioned that the melody was done by Nicholas Brancker; he meant The Nicholas Brancker Band! I did my due diligence and located the tribute video. It is the feature for this post, a tribute to the late Dr. Leroy Caliste, on the 24th of July. September 1941 – sunset on 28th. December 2022.

 

The Black Stalin Tribute by The Nicholas Brancker Band (from Barbados) is a stunning tribute to the legendary Trinidadian calypsonian, Black Stalin. This presentation is a masterpiece of Caribbean music, featuring powerful vocals, intricate instrumentals, and soulful rhythms by the Nicholas Brancker Band. These rhythms transport listeners to the heart of Trinidad's vibrant musical culture from the late Black Stalin. Each track selected for this presentation is expertly crafted. It showcases the incredible talent of the Nicholas Brancker Band and their deep appreciation for Black Stalin's music.

 

The Black Stalin Tribute is a must-listen for anyone who loves Caribbean music or is interested in exploring Trinidad and Tobago's rich musical traditions. It is a fitting tribute to one of the greatest calypsonians of all time and a testament to his enduring power. Highly recommended.

 

I have to admit that the singer, Adrian, was excellent and sounded very much like the late maestro, Black Stalin. This feature is pure excellence and one of the finest Black Stalin tributes that I have seen online. Kudos to The Nicholas Brancker Band.

 

Notes from Nicholas Brancker:

This was the final rehearsal before our first performance after Black Stalin's passing. We had just finished a workshop at UWI for students and decided to document and share this medley with you. This is a tribute to a humble, joyful and committed son of our Caribbean soil. Live on brother!!

Whatever you are doing now make sure that you have something to drink before you press play to watch the video presentation with this post. This is David Rudder, the video is awesome, the music clean and sounds even better today. This David Rudder at his best, singing all the songs we fell in love with sung by this icon of the soil, sweet Trinidad and Tobago.

 

David Rudder is regarded as one of the most influential figures in Caribbean music. On July 28, 2018, Rudder performed what he billed as his "final show," titled 7.0, at Queen's Park Savannah in Port of Spain, Trinidad. The concert celebrated Rudder's career and contribution to Caribbean music. It was a fitting tribute to a man who had such a profound impact on the region's culture. Those who attended the show will forever be grateful for attending. Those who did not attend or watched it via pay per view will soon be able to view a rebroadcast for a small fee. 

 

As we celebrate David's career, we will forever be thankful for all the memorable music he gave us. In celebration of his legacy and creativity we present D'Music Safe and Sound Episode 7 that features David's awesome music. This feature presentation is so awesome, it will surely bring back nostalgic memories as you shed joy tears. As David would say, "Live yuh life like yuh playing mas, hand in the air and wave for me, time to misbehave".
