COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Calypso submitted by SBNB on June 15, 2015, 8:13pm This CD isn’t bad. I had heard Day-O on a kids’ station on Pandora and thought I’d check it out. I’m not a big fan of many of the songs, but they’re not bad.

Bellafonte submitted by tbbrown76 on July 3, 2020, 8:00pm Such a unique sound for his time. Day-O is great and I know "Man Smart Woman Smarter" from the Carpenters. Recommended.
