Hi chaps. I'm looking for a site that when you enter a band or artist's name, it generates a list of similar artists, or artists that you might also dig.

Failing that, can anyone who likes Harry Belafonte please post a list of all the other music that they like. Cheers.

Hey Zee. This is probably the best site for this in terms of it's depth of genres...

That Last FM thing is pretty good for that kind of psychic stuff

Harry Belafonte is great isn't he? 'Jump In The Line' is one of the greatest songs of all time.

He is also an ethno-musicoligist and put together an incredible 6 CD/1DVD boxet of the history of Negro-American music.

3 cheers for Harry Belafonte!

A really good place to start would be to pick up the 'Mento Madness' compilation. It's so well put together and it's bloody amazing and a fantastic reference point for 40s & 50s Caribbean music.

He was also the recipient of the first inter-racial blowjob on primetime US tv

Yep. I was listening to Jump In The Line last night and hearing it makes me a very happy person. Hence, my quest to find other songs and artists of a similar persuasion!

Pandora does this sort of thing.

A million thank yous for all your assistance on this matter Vincent. You are a very helpful man to have around during Harry Belafonte-related crises.

I remember seeing Harry Belafonte on The Muppet Show.
