5 out of 5 stars punta wonderful.......2006-02-24

Sopa de caracol, conch soup in english is wonderful to listen to! the beat is infectious and the lyrics take you away to some tropical destination. punta ROCK started in belize but punta started in the bay islands of honduras. honduras' bay islanders speak english and many are decendents of the english that colonized there. belize was known as BRITISH HONDURAS, coincedence?? i think not. belize was an extension of honduras. punta has the same heritage as raggae and other african inspired music, the rock part is a part added in belize......... don't mislead people without explaining the whole history, there's a REASON punta is most popular in HONDURAS, it's history is rooted there.....the music is beautiful even without the rock part.

5 out of 5 stars Correction On Author of song "Sopa de Caracol".......2002-07-26

The Original name of this song is "Conch Soup" which means in Spanish "Sopa de Caracol". The Author's name is Chico Ramos, (an African descendant and now more widely known as "Garifuna"} is a citizen of the country of Belize, the ONLY English speaking country in Central America, situated between Guatemala & Mexico on the Caribbean shore. Chico Ramos wrote this song while living in Stann Creek (now known as "Dangriga")in 1987 and became a Hit in the country of Belize during the Independence Celebrations of Belize in the month of September of that same year. All rights and mentions for the words and music of this song should be given to Mr. Ramos.
The Hondurans (La Banda Blanca) made this song their own when they presented it on UNIVISION for the first time. Up to today this song is played by Banda Blanca and sang in Garifuna dialect although the members are not Garifuna in anyway.
