I saw her do this live in Boston in 1963/4. Harry Belafonte invited her to tour with him which I think was her first tour of the US. The clicks were louder than the words. Leaving the concert people all around me were trying to click without much success.

I have my parents' copy of the album (vinyl) Belefonte Returns to Carnegie Hall which I first listened to many years ago and do so occasionally still. She appears on the album performing this song. It's a much better performance than the one in this post. ! have a digital copy on my phone and just listened to it again. Thanks for the prompt!
