V/A - London is the Place for Me 8: Lord Kitchener in England, 1948-1962 2xLP

What a wonderful collection of the Calypsonian legend Kitch! His output as prolific as it was quality, these songs were adroit looks at topics big and small, each with humor, insight and a working-class perspective. Revolutionary. 

"The latest volumes in this highly acclaimed series presenting the music of the Windrush generation: the post-war, London recordings of West Indians and West Africans, in the first wave of modern migration to Britain. Volume 8: Lord Kitchener In England, 1948-1962 is devoted to the great calypsonian Lord Kitchener. Gatefold double LP with insert, including numerous stunning photographs, and brilliant new writing by Kitch's biographer, Anthony Joseph. Sound restoration at Abbey Road; pressed at Pallas.
