As some of you might know, one of the TOP RIVALRIES ever in the HMI in terms of bands was between SCORPIO and D.P EXPRESS (Started with GYPSIES/DIFFICILES...until both bands changed their names and a couple of musician changes).

In the heart of all this were managers PIERROT AL-KHAL and PAPITE HALLOUN. Pierrot the manager for SCORPIO, and PAPITE the manager of D.P. GUESS WHAT?

Pandan TOUT FANATIK YO TAP RELE ANMWEY....Ready to beat each other for the passion they had for their respective bands.....Many people don't or did not know that the two are actually FIRST COUSINS...as their moms are SISTERS...and CHAK DIMANCHE....YO TE KON MANJE ANSANM

The picture below shows PIERROT on the ladder, and his first cousin PAPITE (On the left) as young kids.


ANMWEYYYYYYYYY

KM!

Bel epok wi

Mwen te toujou konn tandé yap di DP ak SCORPIO se te menm yo menm nan...
Men te gen anpil moun ki pat vle kwè sa...
Se te on kesyon de TRAIN an pasé sou BET la...

DKBESS

Ou te yon fanatik SCORPIO ou DP EXPRESS?

KM!

Nice bit of HMI Music trivia. Thanks for sharing with the pic.

Did not know this one, they always say Robert Martino and the late Porky were friends, anyway I bleed Green!!

Thanks for sharing Pat. Growing up, I always heard about them but of course they are much older than I am... nevertheless, I still listen to their songs to this day..
