Question Hi.. I am trying to find where I can get a recording of a song called 'Die with my dignity' which was recorded by someone called 'Singing Sandra' and was on the 'Mighty Sparrow label'
I think it is Reggae. I hope ypou can help....
Answer Hi Guy,
Thanks for your attention.
You are looking for the Caribbean singer Sandra DeVignes, a.k.a. ‘Singing' Sandra, the 2-time Calypso Monarch. She sings about her opposition to prostitution with her signature song "Die With My Dignity", known too "Sexy Employers",
This feminist anthem, written by the legendary Tobago Crusoe, was originally released by the superb Mighty Sparrow label as a single in 1987.
You will find a compilation, Sweet Sweet Soca, with this tune at http://www.tropicalvibes.com/ http://www.tropicalvibes.com/Sweet_Sweet_Soca.html
Hope I have been helpful, and if you need anything else, please feel free to get in touch, ok?
