Jamaican Farewell

Today calls for a deep breath, a bit of list-making, and a Harry Belafonte song. I'm trying to get my life into some semblance of order before I leave, which means doing things like getting my glasses fixed, going to the phone store, banging my head against the wall, cleaning my disaster of a bedroom, and all other manner of fun tasks.

I have no idea the story behind this video, but it's a compelling little peek into the televised music of the 1950's:


- "Jamaican Farewell," from Calypso by Harry Belafonte (1956)

Finally, if you are reading this, thank you.
