Baisser Bas – Tabou Combo Superstars, 1983

🎵🎤🎶🔥🕺 Vacation hit? In any case, in 1983, Baisser Bas was a memorable hit. The Haitian group had been known as Tabou Combo Superstars for some time, and it’s no coincidence. On Baisser Bas, Tabou Combo’s over-the-top compas/funk is irresistible, and this track, one of the group’s best-known, wasn’t even included on an album: it was only released as a 45 rpm single. It would later appear regularly on the band’s compilations, and above all, the extended version played live became an essential highlight of all their performances. Go on, compas!
