I know Fab 5 has one and Byron Lee has one. I'll check out Fab 5's version. I was searching for the original.Originally posted by Gamma View Post"Jamaica's future reflects its past, having attained only one per cent annual growth over 30 years whilst neighbours have grown at five per cent."

I think it is Pluto that did it, because he doesn't normally do cover version. He was a good writer.- Don't let negative things break you, instead let it be your strength, your reason for growth. Life is for living and I won't spend my life feeling cheated and downtrodden.

Cho, that was an easy question!
The group is Stanley & the Turbines. You can't ask a tougher question?

Not so sure Assasin. That song has all the makings of a Grub Cooper song.
Fab Five been around since the early 70s too.
Pluto was an outstanding writer, but his writing style was more storytelling than playing on words. I don't remember hearing his cover of Shaving Cream but I know he did a cover of the song with the line "Country Girls, country boys sitting on a rock,..." which is similar in style to Shaving Cream.

Benny Bell (1906-1999) was a vaudeville comedian who did the original song, I think in the 1930's. The song is a staple of the old Dr. Demento radio show. Now, Dr Demento is no longer on radio but available on Internet through paid subscription.

Almost certain it's not Pluto. Just doesn't sound like him. Don't think it's Grub Cooper either. Could have been written by Grub, but doubt if he was the singer.
