The project Cultura y Raices CR (Costa Rica) produced this wonderful video, showing afrocostarican youth dancing to Walter Ferguson's "Carnaval Day" and thanking the Calypso King for his music.

We are very moved by all those beautiful people expressing their feelings and gratitute to Don Walter's music and their support of the international Tape Hunt! Big up - bless up!
