Making white people look black

That's what I do, or at least that's what I say when people ask me what I do.  And I am not alone in doing this, it's been going on for years.  Jeremy Taylor wrote a funny little ditty that he performed in Wait a Minim in the early 60s.  He jokes about whites tanning and blacks using skin lightening creams (a practice that has thank goodness disappeared). 

I did promise this song a while ago

06 – Jeremy Taylor – Black And White Calypso

And then there is the old Rolling Stones' song Paint it Black.  I have posted a rather twisted version by Guy Mann-Dude who recorded a few albums in the nineties.  Guy is a mutual Patto admirer and he and I have been chatting up a storm on Facebook.  There is a lot more to Guy than this track but you'd have to ask him to send you his really interesting stuff.
