From all accounts, a genuinely great human being.
Here he has a bit of fun during the recording of We Are the World, as his fellow singers serenade him with his best-known song.

May Harry Belafonte rest in peace! My all-time favorite songs by and with him are... Mary's Boy Child (1956) #12 Billboard Hot 100, #28 AT40's All Time Christmas Countdown on 12/25/1971 & #1 UK and has since sold over 1.19 million copies there! Banana Boat (Day-O) (1956) #5 Pop Jump in the Line (Shake Senora) (1961) BeetlejuiceI sang this song with my 6th grade class at Franklin Elementary in Redlands, California, circa 1985... USA for Africa - We Are the World (1985) #1 AT40

Very sad to hear that Harry B has passed on - him singing Island in the Sun is one of my very first memories as we always had the radio on at home when I was a kid.
And he did have a really full life with a great legacy, RIP Harry
