Music reviews of Calypso

Music Review: Some of my favorite music
Rating: 4 Stars

Harry Belafonte's treatment is what got me interested in Calypso music... he does it so well. A lot of fun songs on this album, especially Jamaica Farewell and "Woman is Smarter." I'm trying to learn how to play Jamaica Farewell on my uke and this is definitely helping.

Description of Calypso

When Harry Belafonte released Calypso, with its memorable songs "Day-O", "I Do Adore Her", and "Jamaica Farewell" sung in his personable, warm voice, it quickly became a bestseller. Like any good folk music, the songs are accessible, yet they also bear the exotic lure of the Caribbean. From the songs of hard work, such as "Day-O" and "Hosanna," to the sly good humor of "Man Smart (Woman Smarter)" and "The Jackass Song," Belafonte's voice helped bring the richness of Caribbean culture to the North American consciousness. While a couple of the songs here are featured in arrangements that may sound a bit corny to modern ears, most sound delightfully fresh and have definitely stood the test of time. --Jeff Grubb
