He won the South Calypso Crown with Sixteen Commandments and has not looked back since. Tall, handsome and very sexy, Shorty was the hit of all the 1973 tents with his version of Art of Making Love. A very versatile man, he knocks them dead with Ballads, Reggae, Soul and Calypso. This album marks the first time Calypso music has been recorded accompanied by Symphony Strings. Another first from the man who writes music with feeling, sings it with feeling and is definitely Gone Gone Gone.
