Lord Kitchener ( April 18, 1922 - February 11, 2000) was one of the most internationally famous calypsonians. Born Aldwyn Roberts in Arima, Trinidad and Tobago, Kitchener's success began after he moved to England and soon became massively popular there. His fame continued throughout the 1950s, when calypso achieved international success. Later, though, he moved towards Soca, a related style, and continued recording until his death.
His most famous songs include:
He is buried in the Santa Rosa Cemetery in Arima, Trinidad.
