The SteelPan Music
Fans and Players Remember
The Master Clive Bradley
Paris, the
15th of December 2005
Calypsociation would like to send our deepest regrets for the loss
of Clive
Bradley. We all know how important Mr. Bradley was to Trinidad and
Tobago
and the steel pan community worldwide. Several of our members were
lucky
enough to meet and work with Mr. Bradley, not only was he a
brilliant
composer, but he was a very warm-hearted human being and his loss
was a very
sad moment for all of us .
For all of these reasons we would like to join and support you in
this
period of mourning. We are with you in our thoughts and if there is
anything we can do, please let us know.
Sincerely,
For CALYPSOCIATION,
Nathalie CLERAULT
President

Respect
Caribbean
Beat has profiled some of the
Caribbean's most brilliant pan performers,
players like
Ray Holman and
Andre Tanker, and over the years we have
followed the growing quantity and quality of
pan recordings. But so far we have not
explored the world that lies behind those
majestic sounds, the orchestral displays
that so many listeners enjoy at the Panorama
competition during Trinidad Carnival, or at
the World Steelband Festival, held this year
at Madison Square Garden in New York. I mean
the guys who write the music; who take
simple melodies and elaborate them into
fullscale arrangements for the orchestras;
who tune the pans and give each orchestra
its own distinctive sound.
But that's something we have to do soon.
Last weekend, we lost one of the great
arrangers,
Clive Bradley, who had worked for
decades with various steel orchestras and
above all with Desperadoes, the legendary
band from on top of "the Hill" (Laventille).
Despers is the only band with ten Panorama
championships to its name, and Bradley had
quite a bit to do with that.
Clive Bradley's genius lay in the fact that
he knew exactly which soca or calypso
melodies would sound best on pan (mostly,
those of the late lamented Lord Kitchener),
and he also knew exactly how to develop and
elaborate them so that they could transcend
pretty much every other Panorama
arrangement. He had worked with Despers long
enough to know exactly how to get the best
effects out of the players and their
instruments.
I have listened to Panorama for 33 years
now, and for sheer musicianship and
effectiveness I don't think Bradley's best
work has ever been surpassed. It was never
"surface" music, written for show and for
easy impact; there was always meat in it
too, always intelligence and substance, and
at his best he could send shivers down
anyone's spine. Clive Bradley showed
everyone just what pan could be.

HOMAGE TO
A GENIUS
How and where do I start to pay homage
to a genius?
His Majesty Clive Bradley to me was a musical God. He touched my
soul with every note that emanated from his sounds.
The Pan Fraternity will never ever be the same, sorry to say but
there is no one in this life time to replace him. The World at large
is a better place because of him, he has left for us in his will the
treasures of all his beautiful melodies.
The Angels in heaven are again rejoicing because their Prodigal
Brother has returned to their musical symphony, our loss is their
gain. We are very lucky as Pan People to share his musical
creations, his music will live on or generations to come and help
soothe the pain we all share of the greatest loss in the Pan World.
We should honor him by naming the Panorama Competition (The Clive
Bradley
Challenge Trophy). Peace-Love and Blessings to Brados. Farewell (We
Love
You).Valentine Young

His
music enriched my life, encouraged me to play and
taught me how to listen. Truly a legend that should
be recognized as such. I feel blessed to have been
here during his time, to bear witness to greatness
as it unfolded.

|
|
 |

My condolences to Mr. Bradley's family and loved
ones. His music has touched many lives and will
continue to be a source of inspiration and joy for
generations. Thanks Clive ....you will always be
rememberd.

 |

My
thoughts go out to everyone afffected by Clive's
death and to his family. I learn't alot last year
playing his music. Pan won't be the same again. |
|
|

 |

I am deeply saddened.
There will never be another Clive Bradley because
he was unique and his music was unique. I had been
after Bradley for thirteen years to come and
arrange for the Church but it wasn't meant to be
and every year we'd laugh about it...even this
year, the day before Panorama. He couldn't stop
laughing when I told him I'd be playing in the
Panorama this year, but who would've known it
would be his last victory in New York.
Life is so unpredictable; Bradley had so many
plans and ideas that he never had the chance to
finish because death took him. But his music and
his joyful personality will live on in my heart
and memories of us working on music at the
computer will not soon be forgotten. He had his
challenges in life as do we all, but I believe
that he's in a better place, participating in
another kind or orchestra; a heavenly one.

he was a legend
deserving of all the allocades he got recently...
he was a dear
friend who respectfully advised me on my career as
a writer and for this i remain grateful
may the ancestors
be pleased with his efforts
i will pour
libations in his honour

Clive Bradley was
the giant that other giants looked up too and
wanted to be. He is simply the Master.
|
|
|
|
 |

This
Legend of a man was respected world-wide by pan
folk & musicans in general. Condolences to the
Bradley Family and all he has touched in those 69
year on earth.
We will miss you
dearly
Godspeed

I am a member of STVYSO and I heard the news
yesterday from another of my band members who had
had the pleasure of playing with Pantonic for a
couple of their NY panoramas. I was looking
forward to coming up next year to share in the
experience of working with the master. I am truly
a fan of his works and I am saddened by the news.
However I believe that all of those who have
worked with him will continue to honor him by
playing his arrangements.
My condolences go out to Mr. Bradley's family --
immediate and extended. He touched the souls of
many. Rest in peace.

Few have touched as many lives as the Master
Clive Bradley. His ability to connect with his
audience is legendary. For me he was the best.
|
|
|
|
 |
Right now I am listening to Action by Desperadoes at
T&T finals in honor of the man. The minor key jam
gives me chills.
He was the master of the walking bassline... the
tone of Desperadoes' basses fit his basslines
perfectly. The way he would manipulate a mode so it
would simultaneously appear minor and major is
unique... see Music in We Blood with Despers or Mind
Yuh Business with Nutones for example.
To the sweetest arranger, who could do so much
without even playing pan himself... rest in peace. |

I last saw Clive Bradley in Pantonic and D'Radoes
panyards and we discussed some pan ideas. I knew
Clive since his jazz days playing bass and
arranging for Esquires combo.Little did I know
that it was to be my last meeting with this great
icon of the pan world. I hope Pantrinbago honor
his memory by creating an award in his name. I
suggest The Clive Bradley Arranger's Trophy for
the best arranger in Panorama. So long Clive you
are the greatest. What do the panjumbies think?
|
|
|
|

Bloody brilliant idea mate! A Clive Bradley trophy
for best arranger/arrangement could be a great first
step towards doing away with the severely flawed
system of awarding first, second and third prizes,
etc.
There could also be an award for best performance,
people's choice, and best composition (composed
strictly for pan), etc., etc.
The seeds have now been planted, so all pan lovers
around the world, who often have dissatisfaction
with panorama judging, take up this ball and run
with it.
As for Clive, just like Jimi Hendrix, Bob Marley,
John Coltrane, Bird, etc., before him; Clive lives
through his works - the music he selflessly shared
with us all. |

HERE WE ARE AGAIN, KICKING OURSELVES IN THE BUTT.
STEEL BAND ORGANIZATIONS
HAVE NEVER NEGLECTED THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE CONTRIBUTED
TO THE ART FORM,
WHETHER THEY WERE ALIVE OR DECEASED. ITS A PITY THAT
WE DONT DO ENOUGH WHEN
THEY ARE ALIVE. AND PAN PEOPLE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN
GRACIOUS TO EACH OTHER. TO
BE SURE THERE ARE A LOT OF NEGATIVE OBSERVATIONS
FLOATING AROUND ABOUT CLIVE
BRADLEY. ONCE AGAIN LETS BE GRACIOUS TO ONE OF OUR
OWN AND RELATE TO THE
BETTER THINGS THAT HE HAS DONE FOR PAN MUSIC. A
TROPHY ..YES
I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR DESPERS PLAY ONE OF HIS OLDER
ARRANGEMENTS. (LIKE
MARGIE) GOOD BYE CLIVE. |

As a young boy growing up in Diego Martin I could
remember Clive Bradley as Teacher Bradley from
his days teaching at Diego Martin Boys R.C. school
this was in the early 60s back then you could tell
he was a genius in the making.....here's a
quote from George Kallicharan aka 'Yoyo' taken
from Trinbagopan.com in it's Tribute to the Legend
Clive Bradley .
"My name is George Kallicharan aka 'Yoyo' and I
live in Diego Martin. I am a pan tuner and
eveybody knows me in the pan world as 'Yoyo'.
Originally I am from Point Cumana Boys Town.
Boys Town was the band that won the first
steelband music festival.
I used to tune and arrange for a band called
'Melo Stars', and during that
time I used to see Bradley around with his guitar.
One day I called Bradley and I ask him to come and
try something with the band. He decided to come
and he did 'Stardust' and 'I Who Have Nothing'. We
rocked Port of Spain Carnival Monday and Tuesday
with those tunes. The talk spread when they
realize that Bradley was the man who made it
happen. After that Bradley worked with other
bands.
The first band Bradley arrange for was
from Diego Martin. Bradley's music was
excellent and he was a genius. I haven't seen any
arrangers who are in the same class as Bradley and
'Boogsie' Sharpe. It will take a long time before
anyone can fill Bradley's shoe. You cannot replace
Bradley. You have to be dedicated, you have to
love it and you have to give your life to it. For
instance, I am a pan tuner and I have been tunning
and playing pan all my life."
My thanks to When Steel Talks for this forum, you
have taken the artform to another level keep up
the good work.

If there was one
man that always give our band arun for our money, I would
have to say it was Mr.Bradley. What I liked about it was
that the results were nearly always very close. As much as
we all rant and rave about the results every year, we enjoy
the competition, we live for that 10 minutes of glory on
stage. With that said I want to send my condolence and
blessings to Desperadoes, D'Radoes, Pan Tonic, and the whole
of Clive Bradley's family and friends. Bradley will always
be missed and thanks for the years of friendly competitions.

As a
family mamber of Clive Bradley (nephew) I would just
like to tell those of you who sent your condolences
that I am grateful for them. In a legend's death
there will always be someone or some people who try
to take us away from our goal of bringing the pan to
a higher level. I would just like to give scenario
on the day of his passing someone called me (you
know who you are) to ask me "What are you going to
do now?"the person is a member of casym.But instead
of getting upset i answered the question. In life
there will always be assholes and fools but how you
treat the Asshole will always be a vital part of
your reputation.Thanks for your condolences and Jah

What
interests me is that as a pan community we always seem
to wait until one of us has passed on before we give our
due respect, recognition and honour. Also how about a
database of info on pannists, tuners, arrangers, pan
builders and leaders of bands who do sterling work in
the pan community, outside of TnT, whose names are not
in lights! People like Goat, Cobo Jack, Ancil Joseph,
Two Left, Gerald Forsyth et al.
Bless up to pannists everywhere. |

Right now I
am in shock.... I cannot believe Mr. Nosie passed away
and I cannot believe that Clive Bradley passed away...my
brain is confused right now.They are now with god and
they will be safe. They are here with us right now, but
we will meet up with them lalter on when we pass away. I
will pray for them that they are safe and that god will
keep them until "we" get there. I will also pray for
Nosie's family and Bradley's family....Amen |
