he Mighty Sparrow in his heyday, performing in a calypso tent. Some columns are easier to write than others, and despite more than three decades of covering Caribbean music, promoting concerts, hosting radio programmes, and crossing paths with just about every big name in the business, I must confess to being more than a trifle apprehensive about the one I’ve just started. I’m about to list my choice of the 10 greatest songs by Slinger Francisco, the calypsonian the world knows as the Mighty Sparrow. And I’m 100 per cent certain that no Sparrow aficionado is going to be anything but incensed. I can almost hear the gripes now, and I can only apologise in advance to those of you who disagree vehemently with my selections. Before going any further, a quick bit of background information on Sparrow for the benefit of readers who may not be familiar with him.

This is also number 23 in The Millennium Series, the complete collection of Sparrow's recorded works over 35 volumes. No one can fault Mighty Sparrow's contribution to the music and culture of his region, nor can one debate his status as the king of calypso. That said, the first of these collections might have made for an interesting aside, a novelty record with seasonal appeal, but a second one? Come on.
