    No.
    It's not Harry Belafonte, and the #4 selling album of all time isn't Calypso.

    Thank god. If Harry Belafonte had the #4 selling album of all time I would want off this rock.

    We’re they smoking bananas when they made this?

    Also, I always thought part of the Pink Floyd ethos was not selling their image for commercials?

    When I graduated from law school, there was an ceremony for all of the graduate and undergraduate schools and the University gave out honorary doctorates. The President said a few words about each of the 4-5 honorees but said that due to time constraints, none of them would speak. After he’s done, honoree Harry Belafonte grabs the mic and says in his raspy voice “I know what everyone wants”. And then leads 10,000 students and relatives in a call and response of “Day-O”
