In Costa Rica, the calypso and other afro-caribbean rhythms are mostly important in the Province of Limón, where most of the Jamaican immigrations first came in the nineteenth century. The most important figure of Costa Rican calypso is Walter Ferguson. Two of his most important albums are: Babylon and Dr. Bombooee.
