Skah Shah Number one will always be the number one Haitian band for me. This is a band has made great contribution to the Haitian music, specifically in the 1970s and 1980s. Among many other great Haitian bands of the time, Skah Shah The Best of ALLTIME thats for sure. Still going strong. They were my favorite as a kid and they still are my favorite now.
In the 70's and 80's, Skah Shah #1 emerges as one of the greatest Haitian musical band.
Their musical has been most vital to that generation's worldview that grew up listening to Nemours Jean Baptiste, the founder of Konpa (or Compas) Direck, Les Shleu Shleu, Les Amssadeurs, Jazz Des Jeunes, Tabou Comb, Septentrional, and Tropicana etc.
