That's so cool! I remember his name from our copy of Belafonte at Carnegie Hall! I loved that album! My dad fixed up a speaker outside from our indoor record player, and we played that album over and over again in the summer nights and danced to the music. I pored over that album cover so that's how I remember your uncle's name. RIP Mr. Belafonte. Now cracks a noble heart.

I wept when The Mighty One Passed Away What a voice and what a great Human being May He Rest In Peace Always

Harry Belafonte (1927-2023) RIP! ❤

loved him, no-one like him

My dad passed away on 11th March 2023 after fighting multi organ disease for over 2 years. This was his favourite song. He was loving, kind and caring. He was very protective of our family and especially me and my brother. He added so much life and colour to our lives that it feels like an empty void without him. For the last 2 years, I saw his condition get worse and worse, with doctors saying that it was a terminal case. Slowly he lost his mental faculties, remembering little about himself or us. In one way, I’m happy that his suffering has come to an end, for no god loving man should be put through that ordeal. I hope god has taken his test and my dad has come out with flying colours, since he didn’t lose his faith and love for God till the very end. His last 3 hours were spent in the way he loved it most - Thanking God, thinking about his children, and laying in my mothers arms. “God is Great” was his favourite thing to say. You’re a lion dad, and your roar will forever reverberate in my heart. I’ll carry you everywhere I go, and your legacy shall never be forgotten. I’ll love you forever and always, Your loving son.

Throughout my early childhood, my grandfather would always sing this song whenever he was driving my sister and I to spend a few days at his house. Keep in mind, this was during the early 2000s to mid 2010s, 50-60 years after this song first debuted. I think it was the first song that I ever got emotional about. He used to tell me that when I was really little, I’d cry when he said “I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town”. Now that he has passed, this song is one of the ways of how I remember him the best.

What a singing voice. My man. RIP Harry, you'll never be forgotten.

You are on your way , Harry ❤ thank you for your music and see you later

Once he had to go abroad for office work. Then all of a sudden I heard this song on his collar tune. I had never heard the song before. After listening I ask her who is this little girl you are leaving? I didn't really understand until then. The first three days there was no answer. Then just as the flight took off, when I could no longer speak for a moment, a message came to me. 'You're my little girl.' Since then this song has always been made me Emotional. This song is extremely special.

This song brings my memories of my child hood and school life my father gifted me his record player in 1973 when I was topper in board exam in West Bengal state India and scored in IIT entrance
