1	Putumayo Presents: French Caribbean (2003) more music like this by Various Artists Putumayo Presents: French Caribbean isn't the first time a Putumayo compilation has had an Afro-Caribbean orientation, but is the first Putumayo disc that has focused specifically on the Afro-French side of Afro-Caribbean music. Unlike 1997's Caribbean Party and 1999's Caribe! Caribe!, this CD is almost devoid of English lyrics -- all of the ... see all copies from $11.23! new only from $13.37!
2	Putumayo Kids Presents: Caribbean Playground (2004) more music like this by Various Artists Part of the World Playground series on the new sublabel Putumayo Kids, Caribbean Playground takes a nice little romp through the Caribbean, making stops at most of the major islands and including a bit from elsewhere. The course of the album bounces around from location to location, but since this is a kids' album, it keeps a light sound. To ... see all copies from $7.59! new only from $13.37!
3	La 25 ans de Succes (2007) more music like this by La Compagnie Creole see all copies from $41.73! new only from $41.73!
4	Oh Madiana (1985) more music like this by Jacob Desvarieux Perhaps I'm getting to be a fogy before my time, but I can't find any new zouk to touch this 1985 gem from my favorite Kassavite. Besides the adjective-boggling title track, this album has Desvarieux's tremendously influential arrangements and extensive use of traditional percussion -- including the Antillean Ka drum! Carl Hoyt, All Music Guide see all copies from $20.75! new only from $20.75!
5	Best of Kassav [Warner] (2006) more music like this by Kassav' see all copies from $23.39! new only from $23.39!
6	Sone Ka-La (2007) more music like this by Jacques Schwarz-Bart When it came time for this talented, eclectic tenor man -- a native of Guadeloupe whose parents, both award-winning authors, are a black Guadeloupean mother and a Holocaust-surviving French Jewish father -- to record his solo projects, he had a wide variety of stylistic directions to choose from. He's been in many bands with jazz superstar Roy ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.70!
7	Majestik Zouk (1989) more music like this by Kassav' Majestik Zouk was Kassav's second release on the Columbia label. The first release on this label, Vini Pou, was ironically one of their weaker efforts. Possibly in reaction to the tepid response to the first album on an American major label, Kassav fired up the zouk machine and came out with this album of strong and varied material. The opening ... see all copies from $2.00! new only from $17.79!
8	Dife (1997) more music like this by Kassav' Dife (meaning "Fire") is a politically charged album that looks at the social and economic situation on the islands of Guadalupe and Martinique with a steady eye. Although the tone of the album is serious, it is also uplifting, and the music moves with the determined swing that Kassav' is so capable of generating. The title cut is sung with lots ... see all copies from $2.55! new only from $9.40!
9	Medhy Custos (2006) more music like this by Medhy Custos see all copies from $10.71! new only from $27.41!
10	Live Au Zenith (1986) more music like this by Kassav' Though the sound Kassav evolved back in the early ‘80s has become a tad predictable, this remains one of the great show bands, with an affable powerhouse funk that can still make furniture dance. For sheer verve and exuberance this is a dandy, recycled hits and all. John Storm Roberts, Original Music, All Music Guide see all copies from $11.09! new only from $15.29!

13 view cover	Cape Verdean Melancholy (2003) more music like this by Bau Born on the Cape Verdean island of São Vicente, Rufino Almeida (aka Bau, which is the Portuguese word for box) was raised by a professional luthier who taught him both to build and to play the guitar, the violin, and an indigenous four-stringed instrument called the cavaquinho , all of which he mastered at a young age. During his tenure as ... see all copies from $9.52! new only from $11.34!
14 view cover	Solo Lo Mejor: 20 Exitos (2002) more music like this by Tatiana Fans of Tatiana will recognize a few of her more familiar songs on Solo Lo Mejor: 20 Exitos -- specifically, the first two tracks: "Chicas de Hoy" and "Baila Conmigo (El Juego de Simon)." Aside from those, the rest of this collection consists of subpar performances and lesser known songs. The running time is a bonus compared to most Latin ... see all copies from $9.48! new only from $12.61!
15 view cover	Zouk Attack (1992) more music like this by Various Artists Zouk Attack is an anthology featuring such outstanding zouk groups as Pier' Rosier and Gazoline, Love Stars, Typical, Tatiana & Zouti, but sounds just a bit smooth in many places. It's a reminder that zouk was and is a roots-oriented pop sound, and as such has a soft center as well as frenetic edges. Ron Wynn, All Music Guide see all copies from $9.00! new only from $9.00!
16 view cover	Seva (2001) more music like this by Oliver N'Goma Oliver N'Goma of Gabon has diverged somewhat from the proven Afro-zouk style of his previous two albums. Here, he works in new rhythms that range from his mellow brand of Congolese soukous to salsa, indigenous dance rhythms of Gabon, and some Afro-zouk similar to material contained on Bane and Adia. His voice is as strong and velvety as ever. ... see all copies from $25.96! new only from $34.26!

18 view cover	Oupa Ka Sav (1996) more music like this by Kassav' see all copies from $10.96! new only from $10.96!
19 view cover	Siwo (1987) more music like this by Jocelyne Beroard This lead female vocalist from Kassav' sings zouk love ballads better than anyone. Backed by the group Kassav', this is an excellent zouk classic. Import. Robert Leaver & Gene Scaramuzzo, All Music Guide see all copies from $22.24! new only from $22.24!
20 view cover	Aye (1984) more music like this by Kassav One of the earlier LPs by the now almost late, great zouk powerhouse, Aye, from 1984, has all the US influence wrapped around the swinging (loping would be a good word) Antillean beat. Carl Hoyt, All Music Guide see all copies from $11.85! new only from $11.85!
21 view cover	Cho (1998) more music like this by Kassav' see all copies from $19.19! new only from $19.19!
22 view cover	Caribe! Caribe! (1999) more music like this by Various Artists When many Americans hear the term "Caribbean music," they tend to think of calypso, soca, and steel drums. But technically, music of the Caribbean also includes everything from Afro-Cuban salsa, Dominican merengue, and Puerto Rican plena to Jamaican ska and reggae. If any label can be counted on to have an eclectic, broad-minded approach to ... see all copies from $6.98! new only from $13.37!
23 view cover	Tekit Izi (1993) more music like this by Kassav' Tekit Izi continues the long string of successful albums released by Kassav. The strength and cohesiveness of the group is evident from the first down beat. They are the zouk dynamo of Guadeloupe and Martinique. Along with some very solid zouk, they combine some groove-laden ragga on "Leve Tet' Ou." Their zouk here favors the harder-edged zouk ... see all copies from $3.98! new only from $10.85!
