| | An Evening With Harry Belafonte & Friends CD Harry Belafonte Discography of CDs
Harry Belafonte spent most of the '90s in semi-retirement, appearing only on the occasional television show, until the 1997 PBS special to which this album is the soundtrack. Largely new material, except for the traditional encore of "Matilda," "Jamaica Farewell," and "The Banana Boat Song (Day-O)," AN EVENING WITH HARRY BELAFONTE AND FRIENDS focuses on the world music aspects of Belafonte's music, with two songs featuring the African pop singer Richard Bona.
Belafonte's vocals, while in a lower register than in his late '50s heyday, are as supple and elastic as ever, and the arrangements, though they still Americanize a fair amount, are more traditional than on his pure-pop early albums. This isn't Belafonte's best work, but it's still delightful.
Includes liner notes by Harry Belafonte.
Personnel includes: Harry Belafonte (vocals).
Engineers: David Belafonte, Kooster McCallister.

"You Can't Lose What You Ain't Never Had" and "The Same Thing" did not appear on the original version of FOLK SINGER. They were recorded at a separate session in April 1964, three months after FOLK SINGER was released.
The title and cover photo of this 1963 recording were an attempt to cash in on the burgeoning American folk revival, but this is pure acoustic blues. Muddy began his career as a Robert Johnson-style solo acoustic performer, and the tunes on FOLK SINGER hark back to those days. He's accompanied sparsely by Willie Dixon, drummer Clifton James and a young Buddy Guy, who provide a stark, deliberate backdrop for Muddy's rich vocal and expressive bottleneck ...
