1 out of 5 stars Best of Kid Creole & the Coconuts it wasn't.......2005-10-02

Buyers Beware! THIS IS A LIVE RECORDING. August Darnell and the girls sounds great I'm sure, but this is not what I wanted! If it wouldn't have cost me more to send it back (to the UK!) than it did to purchace the CD, I would have sent it back.

If you want a live CD with great sound, this may be the one for you, but if you, like I, wanted the studio recordings, DO NOT BUY THIS CD.

2 out of 5 stars Not great.......2004-03-25

These tracks are taken from live concert recordings, and the sound and performances are not as good as the original WB recordings. If you want a concert recording, fine. But if you're thinking this is a compilation of studio tracks, beware.

2 out of 5 stars Hardly the Best.......2002-11-23

Kid Creole has done so much excellent work, even before the release date of this album, that it's strange that he would put together this collection of pretty-goods and near-misses and call it a "Best of". A few of the tunes (Lifeboat Party, Don't Take my Coconuts) are great. Several are just plain yawn-inducing boring (Dear Addy, a remix of I'm a Wonderful Thing?). Give this disc a pass and buy "Kiss Me When the Light Changes", a disc where every track is excellent.

5 out of 5 stars Incredibly fun, but not the same versions as Coconuts solo........2002-03-22

This cd is excellent in so many ways. The music is great and includes the very hard to find single version of Kid Creole's "Don't Take My Coconuts", but this song and "Maladie D'Amour" are not the same versions as are on the Coconuts solo album "Don't Take My Coconuts". The title track on the album(available only in vinyl, and released only on vinyl and cassette) includes backing chanting by a group called Another Tribe and adds a lot of spice to this song, I recommend both versions of this hard to find song.

5 out of 5 stars 5 STARS JUST FOR BEING KID CREOLE..........2001-12-05

There's quite a few Creole/Coconuts career span compilations on the market and most of them include dozen or so of his most notorious songs - "Wonderful Thing," "Annie...," "Stool Pidgeon," etc. - but this one is valuble for inclusion of "Don't Take My Coconuts" which was - as Kid's version - released only as a single and is extremly hard to find. (There's also hard to find Coconuts version on their "solo" album by the same name.) So, don't be stingy, dish out those few extra bucks, but get a real deal...

5 out of 5 stars very enjoyable.......2000-12-27

Kid Creole&the Coconuts hold my attention all the way through on this fun set.the music has no labels.it has so many styles running through it.Kid Creole has done so much musically.this set reflects the talent&vision of sound.Great fun&Happiness had after listening to this.

5 out of 5 stars Great Collection.......2000-12-18
