A tight backing band, plus superhuman powers of total crowd control. With Belafonte as the conductor, the entire hall breathes like a single living animal. This is the art of live performance. Bravo! The story goes that Saburo Kitajima later heard this, got hit with a "KABOOM," and tried his own "Ideede-ideede-ideedeee-eoh" routine at Shinjuku Koma Theater, bombing spectacularly — a charming little episode in hindsight.
