A Francophone group whose good-time Caribbean sound found a wide audience in the 1980s, La Compagnie Créole released their first album, Blogodo, in 1982. A number of albums, awards, and tours followed, eventually culminating in the 2007 best-of compilation 25 Ans de Succes (25 Years of Success). The band played in a number of different countries, including the U.S.A., Canada, France, Belgium, Switzerland, and Spain. In 2004, they recorded and released an album in Spanish and played dates as a Spanish-language act. ~ Chris True, Rovi
