Kassav's catalog is so vast than you have to include songs from their side projects too. I compiled two discs of my favorites by them last year and went back to their Love and ka dance/Oh Madiana days to recent stuff that Patrick St. Eloi ( before he left) and Jean Claude Naimro did with African musicians.
Speaking of their side projects, I borrowed an LP that they did with Jocelyn Mocka, a singer from Guadeloupe. Can't say i liked it...almost didn't record it. Also picked up LPs by Typical, Trianga (new to me), Magic Tub with Gordon Henderson and Chantale Rhinan, Eddy Gustave, Jacky Rapon and Zetwal, Another Chiktay, and a Cedia Sylviane from Guyane. Saw an oldie by cadance group Les Aiglons and a Grammacks record with a cover of Eddy Grant's "Hello Africa." They'll have to wait until next time, borrowing 20 of the man's LPs at one time was enough. I'll put up sound files when I'm done. |

I myself consider the best and most prolific period of KASSAV was from their start in 1979 (at this time the singer was Freddy MARSHALL who left around 1982) until 1989 !!!!! All the 80's period was pure magic and i consider their work at this time as pure MASTERPIECES. The guys were nothing else than GENIOUS knowing they created a sound, a music !! 1980: Lagué mwen 1981: Kalkilé Soukounyan 1982: An nou alé Eva ola'w té yé Balata bèl bwa 1983: Oh madiana YouTube - Kassav Ho Madiana Rété YouTube - Kassav Jean-Philippe Marthely Rété Zombi Banzawa 1984: Ayé Mystic CHwazi Mwen di'w awa Yélélé Tim tim bwa sèk Zouk la sé sél médikaman 1985: ANba chenn la Tout la rivyè ka désann an lanmè Filé zetwal Mwen malad aw YouTube - Kassav Mwen Malad Aw Mové jou Anba latè An mouvman Ou pèd fil aw YouTube - Kassav Jean-Claude Naimro Ou Ped Fil Aw Eva YouTube - Kassav - Eva - (1804live.com) 1986: Chawa Mwen anvi'w Soulajé yo 1987: zot vini pou musicMe : musique gratuite, telechargement illimité, video-clips HD u can listen to those songs right here: musicMe : musique gratuite, telechargement illimité, video-clips HD |

Good thread indeed. I don't know a lick of creole but I can definitely relate to Kassav's music. Man I have almost all those posted on my MP3 player. Wish I knew the language to sing along though.
