Product Information
Vinyl LP pressing. New York-born Jamaican-American singer, songwriter, actor, and activist Harry Belafonte is a truly unique personality - there really is no other performer or entertainer quite like him. With a recording career beginning in the late 1940s, he was instrumental in the popularisation of folk music of all kinds, especially West Indian calypso, but his music encompasses a range of idioms from gospel, blues, jazz and comedy to stage music and sophisticated pop. This 14 track LP is very much a celebration of that rich and varied musical canon. It features all his US and UK pop hits, including UK No.1 "Mary's Boy Child" and the UK top 3 hits "Banana Boat (Day-O")", a US No.5, and "Island In The Sun". Other favourites featured here include "Scarlet Ribbons", "Jamaica Farewell" and "Little Bernadetta". It provides an absorbing overview of the primary era of his recording career, exploring music which is rarely heard these days but offers an insight into Mr. Belafonte's remarkable musical compass. It is sure to possess your musical soul and get you out of you seat and do a calypso around the room.
