The best of Harry Belafonte
I bought this CD set for some of the clasic Belafonte songs,which were as expected.The trouble is that there were not enough of them. The rest were rather poor & unispiring.
Early albums at a great price...
This set comprises 2 original albums "Calypso" plus "Sings Of The Caribbean" and bonus tracks too. The sound is good and these are transfers from record to CD and are clear throughout. The running times are 44 and 50 minutes.
The albums date from 1956 and 57 with the earliest bonus recordings from 1953. The CDs are nicely packaged and with liner notes by Michael Heatley and the compilation put together by Glenn Gretlund and Tony Watts.
This is a good chance to hear the early and developing sound of one of the most popular of American performers of the 20th century.
