Bim & Bam - Laugh With Bim And Bam


Pama CD 2003 FLAC recorded 1969
Bim, Bam & Clover were a popular comical trio from long time ago. Though I am very Jamaican inside and outside (front back left right above and under, which you know by now, see avatar on the right upper side) this trio was happening before my time, I wasn't there yet. For proof of their existence here is this CD, guaranteed to make you laugh. My mother abandoned me next to a cannabis plantation... to be continued..
