Accolade

I am quite fond of "Accolade," which according to Gage Averill, contained a medley of other hits (including this one), is an infectious kompa hit album that called for unity among musicians and a chance of conscience in a music form tied with Duvalierist Haiti. It's somewhat surprising that Bossa Combo was one of the leading commercial bands to lead to a shift in the kompa music scene politically, given their previous close relationship with Baby Doc. Regardless, they left us some great music.
