    I used to listen to his record albums growing up as a small child of 6 or 7 years old and still love his songs ! Need to look for his records at thrift stores ! Hope I find some of his old records !

      If you have a library card that let's you use Freegal, much of Belafonte's songs are available on that application. The music is DRM free & you own the songs you download. I think you're allowed to download up to 5 songs per week.

    Harry Belefonte (born Harold Belanfontaine Jr.), is one beautiful man. I adore his voice, sexiness, looks, sense of humor and the energy he puts into his characters and his stage performances. I also admire his humanitarianism. He gives so much of himself to people. He lives such an unselfish life. I adore every bit of this historical, intellegent, renaissance man.

    I have admired him for many things- his voice- grace- activism-calmness when in a discussion about injustice giving people of many
    Opinions to speak and then giving them examples of injustice. His friendship with Dr. Martin Luther King helped him to continue to work
    on behalf of justice for his entire life. A life well lived!! Thank you for sharing your beauty with us. Rest in Peace 🙏🏽❤️🌈🌹

    Whao! I can't stop watchin Belafonte Matilda.this is comedy of our time.
    Musicians overenjoyed in Sweden that they lost their keys.
    Over 40yrs women probably were matildas at their prime time.
    Bigspenders had a good show reason they spend big.
    The two men with Belafonte never had any Matilda in their lives except Belafonte.
    Scholarships struggled and are still struggling for life.
    I love this piece.
