Crop Over Steel Classics – Happy 50th Anniversary

Posted on August 11, 2024 by stefanwalcott

It is important to continually work with older content; that’s how you build wealth. In that regard, I want to announce my latest offering based on indigenous music, Crop Over Steel Classics, the first release from my new label, 1844 Productions.

This album has some of the biggest Crop Over songs of the last 50 years rearranged for steel pan. I have also included a .pdf with the score for all the arrangements.

I want to thank Erica and Gail from COSCAP for helping me with this venture, as they, too, realise the importance of always working with what you have.

Enjoy!
