Wise Guy

Kid Creole And The Coconuts

The record functions as a variety show, full of irony and complex vocal harmonies. It captures a moment where Latin rhythms, swing, and funk collide through an art-school sensibility.

This 1982 release emerged from the New York City post-disco scene. The production highlights the eccentricity of the project, turning a standard pop format into a theatrical display of wit.
