Parties in the Antilles are called "zouks," and since Kassav's records were the music of choice at the zouks, their music came to be called "zouk music." By 1985, nearly every Antilles musician was jumping on the zoukwagon and a whole new style of music was born. Supported by a horn section, two dancers, extra keyboard, drummer, and percussion, the core of Kassav' was Jocelyne Beroard, Jacob Desvarieux, Jean-Philippe Marthely, Patrick St. Eloi, Jean-Claude Naimro, and Georges Decimus. ~ Gene Scaramuzzo
