Harry Belafonte RIP
watched him in the angel levine recently and he was wonderful. really weird angel movie from the director of the shop on main street. flawed but well worth checking out if only for the belafonte performance. he was magnetic in everything he did. rip.

When I first heard of Harry Belafonte, it was from the movie The World, the Flesh and the Devil about the last three people on Earth. Very good movie. Took me a while to get hip to his music and I really liked it when I found it. A legendary performer and personality. Godspeed, Harry.

My first exposure to Belafonte was through my parents, who owned every album he ever recorded. He was smoking hot in Carmen Jones. I also thought he gave a powerhouse performance in a nearly forgotten John Travolta film called White Man's Burden. A show business legend. RIP

I actually have his Carnegie Hall album on vinyl. Might be a good day to play the album. I first discovered him on the Muppet Show.

I highly recommend Belafonte in Island in the Sun (1957) and in Odds Against Tomorrow (1959)...We know he was a silky smooth singer but Harry also packed a punch on film.
