    I can’t believe he pulled out the Don Blackman album, great choice with those deep cuts my brother! That’s also one of my favorite albums, definitely a top 10!
    As a fellow musician I completely understand what you mean when you say that an albums helped change your life, Don Blackman inadvertently helped shape my life as well & I’m very sorry to hear he passed.
    If I was featured on RML, I probably would have pulled out that Blackman album but I’d also have to say Christian Gaubert’s “Running Wave” (1979) It’s definitely a super hot & funky album!

    Well, I knew this was some sort of inside the band joke about Kassav. I checked them out and it turns out I like them, I already like world music so it isn't much of a surprise. I still think they are joking about how good they are and how it changed his life, but I am downloading some. They are from the 80's and have an Islands/West African sound, remind me a lot of Majek Fashek but much more up beat.

    Not all albums were available on Spotify (Selena's Greatest Hits isn't a compilation, Kassav's Lague Moin isn't available), so I added some alternate albums from the artists to make up for it (and some extra George Clinton & The P-Funk All-Stars & Kassav because I'm sure Mark approves).

      Only because Philippe lavil decided to make a cover in 1988. His established name , his strong connections in the music business , the fact that he sung his solo part in french made the huge difference . Interesting how only that song coming straight to your mind talkin about kassav although it s not theirs. Good proof they not mainstream as far as france main territory is concerned. in Martinique, and Guadeloupe you do have a point ..they are Mainstream as zouk has been the relentless and dictatorial dominant music all over those places for decades ..I remember getting death threats while hosting a weekly 2hours rock program on a radio station in fort de france .
