Tropical Gangsters
''Tropical Gangsters'' is the third album by Kid Creole and the Coconuts, released on May 10, 1982. Originally conceived as a solo album by band leader August Darnell and titled ''Wise Guy'', his label ZE Records pressured him to change it to a Kid Creole and the Coconuts record and to make it more commercial sounding in order to relieve the label's financial problems. Despite the tensions this caused within the band and Darnell's complaint that the subsequent record was a "cop-out", the more dance-pop oriented sound helped it reached number 145 on the ''Billboard'' 200 album chart, representing the group's commercial breakthrough in their home country (the album kept the title of ''Wise Guy'' in the US and Canada, with a different cover). However, to the surprise of Darnell and his record company ''Tropical Gangsters'' was a huge success in Australia and New Zealand, Europe, and in particular the UK, where the album peaked at number three in the UK Albums Chart and yielded three t ...
