1	Greatest Hits (2000) more music like this by 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 ... see all copies from $23.39! new only from $23.39!
2	Platinum & Gold Collection (2004) more music like this by Harry Belafonte This brief anthology collects some of the highlights of Harry Belafonte's long stint at RCA Victor from 1952 until his exit from the label's roster in 1972. While at RCA Belafonte was instrumental in introducing world music styles into the pop mainstream, and his tireless endorsement of folk music across all cultures led to a series of releases ... see all copies from $3.00! new only from $3.03!

4	Day-O [North Star] (2003) more music like this by Harry Belafonte This brief collection is heavy on the Caribbean-based material that most people associate with Harry Belafonte. Songs like "Banana Boat (Day-O)," "Matilda," "Mama Look a Boo Boo," and "Jump in the Line" are undeniably infectious and went a long way toward introducing world music rhythms into Western pop music.

5	Banana Boat Song (2002) more music like this by Harry Belafonte A three-disc box set, this anthology might be too much material for the casual Harry Belafonte fan, although there are some wonderful rare recordings included here for the collectors. The first disc is essentially a greatest-hits sequence, including his most famous Caribbean-based songs like "Banana Boat Song (Day-O)" and "Jump in the Line." The ... see all copies from $19.76! new only from $19.76!
6	Calypso From Jamaica (1997) more music like this by Harry Belafonte It is interesting to note that the pop-calypso (as opposed to real calypso) boom of the mid-'50s was engineered largely by a charismatic singer born in Harlem and a Julliard-trained composer from Brooklyn. Both Harry Belafonte, whose mother was from Jamaica, and Irving Burgie, who spent his childhood in a West Indies neighborhood in New York, had ... see all copies from $99.80!

8	Live in Concert at the Carnegie Hall (1993) more music like this by Harry Belafonte Although an initial glance might not tip off even the most observant of consumers, this German two-disc set includes the entire contents of the 1959 double-LP Belafonte at Carnegie Hall [LP]. In North America, the title was reissued in the early '90s. Sadly, it was a considerably truncated single CD. Compiled from two benefit concerts -- on June ... see all copies from $18.58! new only from $18.58!
