With its irresistible dance beat, strong bass line, and
straightforward harmonies and lyrics, zouk has become wildly
popular in the Caribbean, Africa, and Europe. This book--complete
with a compact disc and numerous illustrations and musical
examples--provides a thorough introduction to the sound, lyrics,
choreography, and social milieu of this vibrant and infectious new
music. This invigorating reference work and companion CD of the
Antilles' sexy zouk dance sound will lift readers out of their easy
chairs and their complacency about the nonreggae aspects of
Caribbean pop. . . . [Zouk] is a landmark achievement.--Timothy
White, Billboard
