The Steel Pan Can

Cool island breezes would be nothing without the soft melodic clanging of the steelpan.  And even
though Carnival has passed and the streets of Trinidad & Tobago have simmered down a bit,
the steelpan can always be heard drifting out from a nearby pan yard.  The article found
here introduces us to a brief history of the only
acoustical instrument developed in the 20th century and the man who introduced it to America.  Catch a piece of
Trini history and read more about Mr. Rudy King now that all the Carnival craziness is over.
