Review by Tiago Cadena

Calypso Time, the latest album by Nicholas Brothers with Frank Barcley's Calypso Band, is a delightful blend of Caribbean rhythms and smooth vocals. The album features 10 tracks, each one capturing the essence of the calypso genre.

From the opening track "Calypso Time" to the closing "Say Si Si," the album takes listeners on a journey through the rich musical heritage of the Caribbean. The standout tracks include "Jamaica Farewell" and "Island in the Sun," which showcase the band's ability to create a relaxed, yet upbeat atmosphere.

Nicholas Brothers' vocals are smooth and soulful, perfectly complementing the band's lively instrumentation. The album also features some impressive guest performances, including a standout appearance by legendary calypso singer Lord Kitchener on "London is the Place for Me."
