Songs for Parrotheads, pirates, island dreamers, drinkers and boaters.
This collection of Caribbean flavored songs is sure to take your attention to points south, wanting Rum Runners and Pina Coladas. Listeners have claimed to "feel" warmer when this tropical music is playing.
A 32 track digital production with Soca, Reggae, Calypso, Buffett and Americana styles with steel drum, marimba and Florida based acoustic guitarist and songwriter Rick Steffen on vocals.
"Another Island" shows that Steffen indeed has discovered islands other than Margaritaville!
Along with Buffett-esque island pop, this CD includes the delightfully ska-flavored "Sherry Girl", several energenitic soca (soul-calypso) styles, & the folkstyle narrative ballad, "Hurricane," in which Steffen dons a gruff voice to become the Gordon Lightfoot of the Caribbean.
Steffen delivers a mountain-sized hoot with "Pinchin' My Penny," a witty talk-song in which he makes just about every Monetary pun in the ledger as he tells of a lass
who led him astray. Sequil to "the fish song" on Tropical Nights. HTTP://www.KEYWESTMUSIC.NET.
