Our Take

Harry Belafonte, The Absolutely Essential 3 CD Collection

Harry Belafonte, the man, the myth, the calypso legend. This mammoth 3 CD collection is a treasure trove of Belafonte's greatest hits, rare gems, and everything in between. From the infectious rhythms of "Day-O (The Banana Boat Song)" to the soulful crooning of "Jamaica Farewell", Belafonte's smooth vocals effortlessly transport you to the tropical beaches of the Caribbean.

The first disc kicks off with a bang, diving straight into Belafonte's upbeat calypso classics. The energy is infectious, the horns are blaring, and you can't help but shimmy along to the catchy beats. As the album progresses, Belafonte's more introspective ballads take center stage, showcasing his versatility as a storyteller and musician.

But what truly sets this collection apart is the raw emotion in Belafonte's voice. Whether he's singing about love, loss, or social justice, his sincerity shines through in every note. It's impossible not to be moved by his poignant rendition of "Scarlet Ribbons" or his powerful interpretation of "Turn the World Around".

In conclusion, The Absolutely Essential 3 CD Collection is a must-have for any music lover. Harry Belafonte's timeless classics are a testament to his enduring legacy in the world of music. So grab a cocktail, put on your dancing shoes, and let Belafonte sweep you off your feet with this unforgettable compilation. Cheers to the king of calypso!
