When Harry Belfonte's Calypso became the first LP to sell over a million copies, it stimulated an unprecedented calypso craze stateside, with myriad musical and cultural repercussions. Of all the calypso oddities to appear in it's wake, Robert Mitchum's Calypso - Is Like So is certainly the most curious, as well as the most enduring. On this debut LP as a singer, actor Mitchum tackles Sparrow's \"Jean And Dinah\", King Radio's \"Not Me\", Wilmouth Houdini's \"Coconut Water\", and other Trinidadian anthems with considerable aplomb, infusing his delivery with a faux Caribbean lilt that flatters, rather than mocks; a few Don Rae adaptations broaden the palette of this most peculiarly appealing picture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Robert Mitchum","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39640369004615,"sku":"42602002","price":25.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/0132\/files\/4079038-2813322.jpg?v=1711762594","url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/robert-mitchum-calypso-is-like-so-1","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
