Very Best of Harry Belafonte [RCA]
(2001)

by
Harry Belafonte
RCA's Very Best of Harry Belafonte fulfills the title in fine fashion, compiling 20 of his best-known hits onto a single CD (though it cheats slightly by adding a pair of unreleased tracks, "Bam Bam Bamba" and "Two Brothers"). Fans of his breakout Calypso LP from 1956 will find several tracks here -- the obvious "Banana Boat Song (Day-O)" plus ...

Harry Belafonte
Harry Belafonte's influence on pop music is much more far reaching then many realize, as he was one of the first performers to bring worldbeat rhythms to the U.S. charts in the postwar era. Born in Harlem, but spending a good part of his childhood in his mother's native Jamaica, Belafonte grew up straddling cultures and musical styles, and ...

Harry Belafonte
Digitally remastered in 2000, RCA's triple-disc package Greatest Hits is a stellar overview of Harry Belafonte's career, covering 53 tracks spanning the years 1952-1972. While Belafonte is, of course, best known for popularizing calypso music, Greatest Hits doesn't place a disproportionate emphasis on that aspect of his career; instead, the ...

by
The Brothers Four
Excellent and very logical pairing of two classic LPs on one CD -- both were recorded in concert and feature the group in good form, singing beautifully and presenting generally light-hearted folk standards ("Winken, Blinken & Nod," etc.), along with the group's one big hit, "Greenfields," in what is probably its best released version. A fond and ...

Clive Field Marshall is a dancehall DJ from the early days of the genre (1981) who has left hardly a footprint in the annals of reggae history, but whose Wackies debut was such an instant hit with record buyers that labelhead Lloyd Barnes was unable to keep the album in stock -- in fact, his retail clients outside of the New York area never even ...

As a budget-line introduction to the artistry of Harry Belafonte, Folk Standards does its job -- while more definitive collections are certainly available, this brief ten-track compilation still manages to include many of the singer's biggest hits, among them "Cocoanut Woman" and the seminal "Banana Boat (Day-O)."

Harry Belafonte
Curiously, given the title of this repackaging of three European Harry Belafonte CDs, none of them is precisely an "original" release. And, in fact, they cover material from four, not three LPs, plus a couple of other stray tracks. But such qualifications are only to suggest that 3 Originals actually contains more music than you might expect. At a ...
