Harry Belafonte - Calypso (1956)
Back in June, I posted one of Harry Belafonte's early albums (not sure if it was his first), and tonight I'm posting the one that was probably his breakout album - "Calypso". This is the one that has the song "Day O" on it. It is a great album! Many of you probably already have it, and there were several copies in the HPB bargain bin (this was the best copy) when I bought it. So, it's not exactly a rare or hard-to-find album, but I wanted to share my copy with you. Hope you enjoy it!

Can't you repost ? :) Please
Hi, Caio,
I'm sorry. I can't repost the link for this. Blogger sent me an email to take it down (along with the other two Belafonte albums) so I complied so as not to get in trouble. I'm sure someone else out there has it posted somewhere!
Thanks for visiting!
Esther
