Up to this point, calypso had only been a part of Belafonte's focus in his recordings of folk music styles. But with this landmark album, calypso not only became tattooed to Belafonte permanently; it had a revolutionary effect on folk music in the 1950s and '60s. The album consists of songs from Trinidad, mostly written by West Indian songwriter Irving Burgie (aka Lord Burgess).

Harry Belafonte became an international recording star in the 1950's with his introduction of the calypso genre to the pop music. Belafonte is also a humanitarian and political activist. Here are ten of the best known and best-loved songs by Harry Belafonte. 10. "Brown Skin Girl". This is a track from the breakout smash 1956 album Calypso. It was written by calypso pioneer Norman Span, known professionally as King Radio. This one has the island rhythm that so many of the big Belafonte hits also feature, but is a bit more gentle and folksong-like. An often covered folk song written by Malvina Reynolds, Alan Greene, and Belafonte himself, this appeared on his 1959 album Love is a Gentle Thing. The track is, in fact, quite gentle and makes a point of how life flies by, and should be cherished.
