Calypso (2)

The Dial 10" long playing albums were the first LPs recorded in Trinidad. They were marketed in the United States where a steady supply of 78rpm records and a couple of long playing records by Trinidadians, North Americans of West Indian descent, and other North Americans fed a calypso boom that had been incubating since the late 1930s. In Trinidad, Christopher marketed some of the DIAL recordings on the red 78rpm Calypso label.
