...coconuts, seriously, it's danceable and witty, they were really on a roll.... "the man likes milk, now he owns a million cows" Tell me that i'm dreaming really touched a nerve back then. Crazy (not crazy) would have been a good alternative name for Was (not Was), i followed their career and even their production work would be reason enough to...

Goin' Coconutty

2008-08-01 21:40:35 by Mike the Knife of MOG in MOG - Editor's Picks
 
...Coconuts, one of the two great show bands of the 1980s. The other was Morris Day & The Time, the funk-and-frolic machine from Minneapolis that also provided a showcase for musicians/eventual super-producers Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis. But, in concert, Kid Creole had an advantage that no one in The Time could trump: The Coconuts! Yeah. Thats...

Kid Creole, all grown up

2008-05-02 06:16:00 by Sean in Mainstream Isn't So Bad...Is It?
...Coconuts , the Coconuts being a trio of lovely back-up singers who figured prominently in the groups music with their interplay with the Kid in his songs. Theres a whole story here about this back-up cast and their involvement with the Kid (platonic and otherwise) which would make a fine USA made-for-TV movie, but as a teaser Ill leave it at...

...Coconuts, we had to listen to shitty in-store CDs every month. Each CD had a tracklisting full of songs that labels paid to have placed. There was a good 3 month stretch when Smilez & Southstar were on these in-store CDs. I remember picking up their CD on the shelf and looking at 2 guys and thinking Which one is Smilez? Neither one really...
