Formed by folk singer/entertainer Harry Belafonte in 1957, this vocal group consisting of twelve men accompanied Belafonte during his tours in the late '50s and early '60s. Led by Robert Corman, Belafonte's then composer and arranger, the group performed spirituals, folk songs, hymns, work songs, sea chanteys, and just about every other subgenre of American folk music (Belafonte himself was involved in name only).
