Notes

'The rhythm and beat of the Islands is in the Esso Steel Band! This telented group have carried their fascinating music all over the West Indies and North and South America, to be acclaimed wherever they went, always with return engagements. Originating with the 'poor people' of Trinidad who wanted sound and ryhthm for their Cane Festivals and had only dust-bins, brake drums and bamboo stalks, the Esso Steel Band now use the specially-tempered steel oil drums that have been carefully but, measured for correct tone and pitch. Each Drum is now an instrument that has its own part to play and has its own name; there's the Ping-Pong which is the melody; the Kettle Drum which is the harmony; and the Tune-Booms which are the "strings".

The leader of Bermuda's Esso Steel Band is Rudolph Commissiong, with Hubert Smith, Jnr. who is wise in the ways of entertained holiday-makers and honeymooners who come the island for something different that will leave wonderful memories to be treasure always . . .
