I thought this was just made for british Tv lots of brit actors in it. I had it on video taped from the original showing. sadly video now somewhat fuzzy in places. kC ends up in jail as do the judges brilliant film
Wonderful song. Darnell is a genius. He and Zevon would have written well together. This and many others are on 'KC Redux' cd, if that helps. Don't know about a film.
Indeed, the irony in this video is palpable. Looks like somewhere in East Africa -- but the accent is kinda off for that. I'd love to find a copy of the film. Wasn't there a stage show of "in the Jungle" -- or was it PBS? Brilliant, brilliant.
Hi there, love this talking from the beginning. Im looking for a reggae song who starts like this(similar like Crying over you). Anyone know where to look, what does it calls when they Intro-talking like this?
The song i look for sounds like Boy George/Bob Marley mix.
I know they did a movie..but at this moment I can not remember the name. Look in my playlist on you tube under kid Creole and the cocnuts, I belive the title to the movie is in one of the vids. I have a great collection of alot of stuff as you will see! I SAW THESE gUYS LIVE BEFORE THE b-52'S HERE IN mIAMI IN 83! wHAT A FRICKIN CONCERT!!!
what is the story here?
i hope some one makes billions of copies of this film so we can all share the experience.

He and the band are in 'Against All Odds'.

I believe it was a PBS special that was first broadcast on Boxing Day 1984 in Granada

The politics is the same today - but no-one does the irony (or the MUSIC) like the Kid AND the original Coconuts!
