According to MARIO DEVOLCY, did you know that founder of COMPAS music NEMOURS JEAN BAPTISTE in the span of 10 years (1955-1965), went through an astonishing 24 lead singers in his band?

On the opposite end of the spectrum, his rival, CADENCE RAMPA founder SICOT only had 1 main singer for his band.

If you did not know....NOW U KNOW!

One singer?
I think you may get something wrong here Pat...and Mario may have to explain some more to you....
Sicot had André Dorismond as well as Gerard Thezan and the great vocalist Garry French as MAIN singers apart from Dorismond...I can also consider Michel Pressoir even when he didn't record any song with Cadence Rampa he had several shows with the band...I'm VERY SURE that Mario will NOT forget Garry French and Gerard Thezan...

STAFF POZE

The original post said that SICOT only had 1 "MAIN" singer, and I think you missed that.

MARIO saw your reply and told me to tell you this.

DORISMOND was the MAIN Cadence Rampa singer. If a cd had 12 songs, DORISMOND would sing the lead vocals on 9 or 10 0f those songs. Mario said that there were quite a few "SECOND SINGERS", but the MAIN SINGER of the band was DORISMOND.

Thanks for the tidbits, Pat.

Any other bands/artists you'll be adding to the "Did you know" section?

That maybe so, I was able to count twelve from 1955 to 1968 that’s the year I left Haiti and lost touch with Nemours. Let me name the names I could remember:
Julien Paul
Andre Dorismon
Louis Lahence
Jn. Claude Felix
Pierre Blain
Carlo Glaudin
Michel Pressoir
Arthur Lovelace
Willie Lacroix
Ricardo Lovelace

They were two others that I cannot remember their names. The genius of Nemours is the fact he always trying new things whether is instruments better musician that will give his band an edge. We should not forget all the innovations he instituted in Haitian music. First to bring electric guitar, Bass Guitar, organ, modern PA system, etc..
