With the concept and realization of graphic artist Antoine Castro , who also designed the cover art of Belle Epoque , the last album of the orchestra baobab, we present the very well made compilation with the name Haiti Goes Latin , with the co-production of Celluloid, Salsathérapie and Rue Stendhal. CD and LP purchasable format, we could say that Haiti Goes Latin is the most complete work of salsa in Haiti has been done so far in concept, cover art, notes recording, sound and remastering.

With texts written by Benoit de Vimorin, Remi Joigneaux, Michel Persitz, Anne Castro and Castro himself Antoine, Haiti Goes Latin has an inner booklet that study should be respected musicologist. The authors based their work on interviews with direct witnesses of the musical movement of that period: Patrick Anson, Fred Paul, André Déjean, Edgard Depestre and Emmanuel Mirtil. The work focuses on groups and Haitian combos that incorporated the sounds of salsa and Latin jazz to their already autochthonous rhythm of the compas. Considering that Cuban music, which later transmuted into New York City at the end of the 1960s, came from the sister island of Haiti at the end of the 18th century, this compilation covering the period from 1976 to 1984 is a historical compendium with an invaluable contribution to what we know today as salsa.

Formed by guitarist André "Dadou" Pasquet and his brother, drummer Claude "Tico" Pasquet in 1976, the Magnum Band group presents Panamam'm Tombe, a melody featuring trombone solo by Russ Harden and the Colombian pianist Hernan Gutierrez.

Yoyo , also of Les Freres Dejean, it was published by the Macaya stamp in 1979 on the album L 'Univers and this, vocalist Harold Joseph , who possesses the charm of the francophone West Indian singing in Spanish tells the story of a peculiar Seller of meat on the market. Also the piano solo is the work of Jacques Lherisson. Also for the Macaya seal, the piece Tuco's Jam No. 3 of the grouping led by Fred Dejean has again Tuco on drums in a psychedelic download where the engineer Robert Denis did his. Mini All Stars -agrupacion directed by Fred Paul presents his LP Analyzing Pirouli , a composition of Pedro Gomez and whose recording was recorded in New York with the vocalization of Marcos Lopez.
