BY TODAY, fans of ‘The General’ will know if he will be entering this year’s Pic-O-De-Crop calypso competition.

If Edwin Yearwood does compete, it would be 20 years since the man who is the only entertainer to win all four competitions produced by the National Cultural Foundation, graces that stage.

The lead singer in the band krosfyah has had many fans waiting with bated breath over the years for any hint that he would be gracing the big yard again since his triple crown sweep in 1995.

In an interview yesterday with radio personalities Carol Roberts and Larry Mayers on Starcom Network’s Fireworks show, Yearwood, via a telephone link-up, gave a big hint that he would be entering, saying a final decision to bring both feet through the door would be made after a meeting with his arranger Nicholas Brancker.  (JS)
