imagine a crazy dance-filled block party that runs from jamaica to brooklyn, spilling over in neighborhoods all over the globe, filled with caribbean flavors and a cavalcade of great guests: sister carol, sheryl crow, wayne smith, ansel meditation, screechy dan, bonga, and dan zanes . . . how about inviting some incredible west indian musicians from all over brooklyn ?... and of course colin, saskia, elena, and john and barbara from the friends band.
the music swirls around and around while father goose reaches high and low, putting the right words and sounds in the right places. traces of mento, ska, rocksteady, calypso, reggae, folksongs and yes, comedy make this totally unique.
now that's a bam bam diddly!
