I found some old Kassav' videos on youtube.  Enjoy!

Once again I wish I understood the words!  iTunes rates this CD "clean".  I have been listening to it for a couple of weeks and really enjoying it!  They have achieved the difficult balance between trendy innovation and staying true to their own sound which is still evolving over a period of decades. This CD uses a lot of current rhythms as well as traditional ones.  There are a lot of zouk and konpa songs and some really beautiful transitions with interesting chord changes.  I have always loved the chord progression of zouk.  This video showcases the variety of excellent vocalists in Kassav'.  The have so much personality and expression!

I don't think it's Kassav's best cd ever, but it's good for Kassav' and stellar for any other band.  I am very grateful for a CD full of new songs from Kassav'.  They already have countless "best of" and "greatest hits" collections.
