Trivia / Kid Creole and the Coconuts

  • Eclipsed by the Remix: Tropical Gangsters tracks "I'm A Wonderful Thing, Baby", "Stool Pigeon" and "Annie I'm Not Your Daddy" were all substantially remixed for single release and are much better known in those versions.
  • Production Posse: Many people who Darnell worked with prior to forming the group also turn up on Kid Creole and the Coconuts records. At some point this has included every other member of his previous group Doctor Buzzard's Original Savannah Band, and most of the musicians he worked with when he was an in-house producer at Ze Records in the late 1970s.
  • They Also Did: The female vocalists, The Coconuts, also participated in the recording sessions for the U2 album War (U2 Album), appearing on "Like a Song...", "Surrender", and "Red Light" (the latter of which also featured trumpet player Kenny Fradley).
