† During his early years in the In 1986 Luko arrived in Cambridge and was proclaimed by Harvard Students as "Bob Marley in the Square. He typically attracts some of the largest audiences of any act in the Square. " His Jimmy Cliff-like voice is greatly enchanced in the studio and the use of a combination of conga drums and horns only add to his songs' appeal. The interspersal of French and English gives his otherwise conventional songs a welcome folksy international flavor. Adjaffi emigrated from his native Haiti in 1978 to escape political turmoil. The self-proclaimed "International Singer/Songwriter," who spent several years in Belgium, Germany and France, certainly lives up to his sobriquet. "A Mere (To My Mom)," a French ballad with a soothing acoustic-guitar rhythm, features the best aspects of Adjaffi's voice. "Paradiso" is the most complete song on "Passion." After an initial burst of conga drums, Adjaffi switches effortlessly from an up-beat reggae rhythm to a soft ballad. Adjaffi shows surprising versatility in his musical style and the use of his vocal talent, but his lyrics often seem simplistic. "Michelle" is the best-arranged song with the most catchy riff.
