Steel Drum - Blondie The Tide is High by Dano's Island Sounds

[@lefty2149]

Listen to this at least every other day and you’ll never be depressed again.

[@Pyrolonn]

I think you're onto something, I find it uplifting. Maybe it's the anti-blues?

[@trini2DBone134]

that moment when you living in Trinidad, so that means you hear this all day, yet still depressed: 😅

[@rgjerde53]

Every time I hear steel drums, I feel like I'm at a party. Almost everything sounds good on them.

[@trini2DBone134]

well you should come Trinidad then if you like hearing steel pans 😊

[@captainadams7569]

I agree it’s as though they can’t make a mistake or play the wrong note.

[@H4z4rdTw15t]

I always feel like I’m in a tropical place when I hear them and they instantly make me happy

"The Tide Is High" is a 1967 rocksteady song written by John Holt, originally produced by Duke Reid and performed by the Jamaican group The Paragons, with Holt as lead singer. I love the original as much as Blondie's cover.

[@nigelrg1]

Dano is easily my favorite steel drummer. Almost every note rings - with other bands many of the higher notes are "dead", even with native Caribbean drummers.

[@danodrum]

Thank you Nigel! Super appreciate that! Best compliment I could ask for. Peace! Ciao, Dano :)

[@johnharwood6965]

Love this band and it’s music ,gives me goosebumps every time, fantastic music!!!!v ❤❤❤❤

[@danodrum]

Thx for listening. Dano :)

Heck, I'm heading to the kitchen to make a Pina Colada 🍹

[@KleberebelK18]

So surreal

[@paradiselover7580]

Perfect by the pool music. I can imagine I am on a cruise ship.

[@rachelrodgers9171]

I accidently stumbled on this sweet instrumental cover of Tide Is High, it's absolutely out of this world awesome! This cool drum is one of my favorite instruments too.

[@nigelrg1]

I love this as much as ever. This is how a steel drum should sound!

[@ragulan674]

Absolutely brilliant

[@evan.agumbs1887]

Number one type of music.

[@donnahanscom6300]

Beautiful Music

[@geofferyblevins1714]

Music is life for the soul! You'll bring the sun shine!

[@adriancoulling7623]

Ive been into pan from 11 years old ! Lived in Trinidad for 3 years from 2002 to 05 been to loads of carnivals over the years ! Seen the greatest bands of all time ! & met some of the pan pioneers! Its the greatest sound on earth ! Your playing confirms it ! So nice & sweet ! Memories are rekindled!

[@peterbennett9669]

We kept our boat at Crews Inn from 2002 to 2006 and miss Trinidad very much. Bought a steel drum and still play it, not like a Trinni.

[@localgrassfieldboneshandler]

Sounds perfect my friend :)

[@maakeklein4073]

Thanks I was about to say same thing. You saved me trouble.

[@peterlynch7384]

Island sounds bring back so many wonderful memories !!

[@andromedaaudio2836]

I feel like I'm on a tropical beach somewhere by myself smoking a blunt on a sun lounger while this cover is playing on an old portable radio next to me. When in reality I'm sitting in my bedroom in Scotland at the end of December imagining this scenario. :'(

[@sofiah.r5534]

Oh hey I’m also from scotland lmao

[@lefty2149]

Let the music take you away….

[@gordonwilliams5394]

Wow. What a great sound how up lifting in sad world at present.

[@redsfan1245]

Funny how it takes a second, but most songs recognizable (Red Red Wine, The Tide is High, 80s, etc)

[@raysarchet8463]

From a guy who lived on his sailboat with his wife and her "Meggy" doggy for a year - this just tears me up!!!!!!

[@danodrum]

So glad you are enjoying the music. :)

[@MichaelA-n5k]

Great music - we want more of such! This particular cover is so special because of the drums and the electric guitar. One and only so far!

[@michaelgetzie7964]

Not only are you the best professional musicans but your steel drums are super quality producing fantastic harmonics so pleasing to hear!

[@danodrum]

Thank you very much! :) Check out HQ version: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pmbKiWB9rpaHnqM

TIME TO DROP THE MIKE!!! 🎤

[@nigelrg1]

I was in a bad mood and couldn't get to sleep, but Dano helped a lot. The soothing music, the perfect ringing tone (I'm not a musician) all calmed me down.

[@danodrum]

Thx! Glad I was able to help with the mood! :)

[@binlondon9685]

I have been to the notting hill carnival since1977, love the steel band.

[@danielwooden8832]

I grew up on this song and Blondie sings it beautifully...but this sound is sweeter 😊

[@natehill8069]

All this needs is a pretty blonde...

[@garylane6227]

This is amazing. I am listening to all of DanoDrum videos over and over.

[@danodrum]

Thx Gary :)

[@johnnybates7580]

[@lyberty35]

O poder do reggae ❤❤❤❤

[@ericbocericB]

that tune must have fallen to public domain. It's showing up in a lot of places. Rare smash hit melody. A local pizza outfit used it for TV commercial background about 1 year ago. Recognized it instantly. Melodies !

[@danodrum]

Last time I checked it wasn't public domain.

[@donnypeay6770]

I had a pair of D lead drums made in Antigua and had a Man who had a band taught me how to Play them. Had them stolen! Going to buy another pair. So enjoyed listening to and playing them.

[@herminnovelazquez3335]

Me encanta la musica de drones.yo etube unabanda de drones por 10 años

[@rasputin4u1]

The fantastic guitar enhances the richness of the steel drum sound and is an addition which makes Dano Island Sounds the best in this type of music

[@danodrum]

[@roxannegalvan671]

[@e-care-books9867]

Anyone else know this was originally by the Paragons, a 1960s-70s reggae band? I do give Dano for mentioning that in his expanded notes above. Good going, Dano.

Magic song tide is high

[@user-nf5hs6jb9j]

I needed this. I've been dealing with potential COVID and feeling so horrible and anxious. I live in Florida and its been a dream of mine to learn how to play steel drum since I was a little girl (grew up as a drummer). When I finally beat this sickness I'm gonna buy myself a nice lead and live life!

[@danodrum]

Glad it helped. Get better soon! :) Here is a much cleaner version of the song: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pmbKiWB9rpaHnqM Also, downloading always helps, especially now when there are no gigs to perform: itunes.apple.com/us/artist/danos-island-sounds/id264461390 Also, on Spotify: open.spotify.com/artist/29Q99j7x6z1ScWWVvNcVuB

[@leandrogonzalez5956]

Cuando yo tenía la edad de 7 años y demás más arriba de la casa de mi papá había un club y me dice Club lo que ponen era música calipso y era tan bonita y siempre me ha gustado Y por eso me gusta escuchar la nota que ustedes le gusta también pero ahora tengo 63 años y todavía me gusta el cáliz no me gusta mi esposa también soy Viejo pero ahí vamos y usted le gusta pues la pasó y no le gusta pues la quitamos y ponemos otra gente Leandro

Better than the original! No cap!

[@danodrum]

Thx Dano!

[@everettnapihaa6111]

Nice expert-tease!!! Soothing and solid has a nice formula especially with that steady well oiled time signature. That stratocaster harmony with the steel is smooth as silk and the percussions are hypnotic! Couldn't have been done better by anybody!!!

[@leandrogonzalez5956]

Mientras tú sigas molestando y buscar problemas para mis hijos le voy a seguir contestando Mis hijos no tienen que ver con nada y la música que tú pones segundo a mí no me importa ya tú solo estoy diciendo importa mucho para eso Yo no me meto en la línea tuya que tú pasó amorcito yo no estoy buscando rating yo no estoy haciendo la tontería eso que tú haces que tú lo que sigues haciendo en la misma tontería yo voy a seguir ayudándote Te apuesto a saber con el hombre que no muere asuma y ya te tengo albóndigas te voy a buscar el visual qué te van a dar a ganar la Alberto para mirar de verdad Pero tú vaca bailando con la puerta novela toca la vuelta tú me conozca mi personal

I’ve recently gotten a steel pan of my own. Ever since I’ve learned red wine and girl from Ipanema from you guys. I’ll have to learn this one next! Your technique is phenomenal!!

[@danodrum]

Thank you Christian! I appreciate the kind words. Did you learn my style just from watching the videos and rehearsing the parts? And are yo able to play the songs all the way through yet? Rock on and enjoy your steel pan.

[@christians2323]

@@danodrum holy cow didn't see this for 10 months! lol. I was able to learn your style by watching the videos and rehearsing them. I managed to play both of them all the way through, still play them whenever I can!

[@willortiz3547]

Hello Dano, This is one outstanding recording! I loved it! I would like to see you put out a CD with some of your past hits on it. I love your recordings of Coldplay's Clocks and Belafonte's Shake Sonora. I also like this recording along with Red, Red Wine. If you were to create a CD with these studio recordings on it, I think you would have a big seller! I know that I would purchase a copy for myself. My wife tells me she would also buy one to play in her car. Let me know when your CD is available and what music it will feature. Thanks for sharing this one with me...Best regards....Will Ortiz

[@danodrum]

Thanks Will. So glad you enjoyed this song. Very kind words and most appreciated! :) As time goes by I'm getting better at recording, mixing and producing. I do have "Clocks" and "Jump in the Line" on CD's. One Drop Pop for "Clocks" & Pan n Paradise for "Jump in the Line." Both CD's are available on my website: danosislandsounds.com/panshop/index.php And at CD Baby: store.cdbaby.com/Artist/DanosIslandSounds As far as newer releases. My current plan is to make a CD when I'm done with the singles. Working on a Remaster of "Red Red Wine", that one is really starting to come together and getting ready to release via CD Baby, Spotify & iTunes. . After that I'm going to release an original song titled "Cazadero", a dreamy samba. In the current production que is a rendition of Sublime's hit "Badfish", Lalo Schifrin's spy classic "Mission Impossible" & Henry Mancini's amazing "The Pink Panther Theme." Also, the jazz/calypso "Saint Thomas" and Bob Marley's "Stir it Up" & "No Woman No Cry." All of them are almost done, but require many hours mixing and mastering. Then the hard work, syncing to video. Thanks again for following my music and channel. Peace, Dano :)
