Mitchum filmed two movies in the British West Indies at the height of the calypso craze. He fell in love with the music in Tobago, and was soon singing calypsos in nightclubs. He got so good that Capitol signed him and a lounge classic was born! Here he is in '57, singing Jean and Dinah; Tic, Tic, Tic; Not Me; Coconut Water; Matilda, Matilda; They Dance All Night; Mama Looka Boo Boo, and more.
