For some of us non- Carribean, our introduction to the infectious calypso beat came via the "cruise-ship" calypso of Harry Belafonte who made it possible for the bona fide calypsonians to be able to have their music heard by an international audience. Through Belafonte we finally got to meet (in sound) such Trinidadian greats as Lord Kitchener, The Mighty Sparrow, Lord Melody, Duke of Iron, The Lord Invader and a host of others like Sir Lancelot. Purists might have frowned upon what they deemed "fake calypso" but truth be said, Belafonte was calypso's greatest ambassador to the world at large. Rest in power Harry.
Thank you for sharing your perspective! Harry Belafonte truly played a crucial role in introducing calypso music to a wider audience. His contributions cannot be understated. Remember Sharing is Caring and BTW Subscription is FREE. Join the Cultural Revolution, Today!
Have loved Belafonte since I was introduced to his music as an early teen. Saw him at Caesar’s palace as a late teen, then in 1976 in Sydney (Australia). Great entertainer, a man with an amazing love for equality. Especially with the racial and poor issues in the USA that extended to the world. I’m in my 70’s now and still love to listen, watch and get excited about this great man. 🎶💝

2023: at 75, he's still my favourite singer - even having gone through the 60s and 70s rock boom. His solo version of Both Sides Now, written by my fellow Canadian Joni Mitchell, has never failed to move me to tears. I celebrate your life, sir. Thank you.
