We Must Respect Our Pan Artists

Abstract

The article defends the actions of super arrangers of steelband music who arrange for more than one band during the Panorama competition. Some of these arrangers include, Len "Boogsie" Sharpe, Clive "Brados" Bradley, "Sugar" Ray Holman, Leon "Smooth" Edwards, Ken Professor Philmore and Jit Samaroo. These men are great inspiration to the growth of the steelband and are pursued by various steelbands who know of their commitment, their immeasurable talent and their superior knowledge.
