Special program dedicated to Jacob Desvarieux, one of the founding members of the Kassav 'group.

He would have been 66 years old on November 21. We pay tribute to him by broadcasting his most beautiful songs and excerpts from interviews he gave to Cécile Baquey on Outre-mer la 1ère, and to Namouri Dosso on TV5 Monde Afrique in 2019 on the occasion of Kassav's 40-year career.

His beginnings in music are told in 1997 by his mother Cécile Desvarieux and himself.
