kid creole on the road

In the 80's Kid Creole and the Coconuts did "Lifeboat Party"
This backstage VHS video ends in a British excerpt from Lifeboat Party
Adriana Kagei and Danny edited this in 85 or 86 on VideoMix's ancient 3/4" gear.

Love their stuff and thought they deserved a better fate here Stateside but calypso, ska and latin rhythms are a tough sell. Will it play in Peoria? Sire, etc should have tried harder but if Endicott couldn't break through, good chance it wasn't going to be. Love to get my hands on the Coconuts lp to which the Kid refers. It's great.
