I have three hours to fillnext Wednesday evening for a party for 6 people, all they want is background music with a Carribean feel, I think I should be able to fill it without buying any CD's.
Can you think of any other than

Arrow - Hot Hot Hot
Eddy Grant
Bob Marley
UB40
Sway (Mumbo Whambo or whatever its called)

Theres a latin/mambo CD in the CD charts at the moment. Call up the track listing for that, and cross reference its tracks against your own hard dirve/CD's.

Also, for individual tracks, theres:

Beach boys: Kokomo (however you spell it)
Typically tropical: Im going to Barbados
Candido: Jingo
Miami Sound Machine: Most tracks suitable.
Bruce Willis: Under the boardwalk

Mysterious Girl?! lol! Kinda Caribeany (sp)

And there's Soca tunes too!

Next!

Soul Limbo....
Start the Carnival

I did a Hawaiian night last Friday and played stuff like

Chaka Demus and Pliers
Shabba Ranks

Do The Conga!
Enrique Iglasis (spelling!) - Bialomous (spelling!!)
