Incredibile August Darnell alias Ked Creole. Artista nato nel 1950 nel Bronx di New York. Il suo look "elegante" era diffuso negli anni 40 /50 nella malavita di New York. Oggi canta e balla come non fossero mai passati gli anni. Grande artista. Il suo sound ha lasciato 1 segno indelebile. 1 genere musicale unico fuso con vari sounds. Ricordo le Coconuts originali che con i loro balletti ci hanno fatto innamorare. Eleganza raffinate sensuali. Quelle attuali non sono di meno. Complimenti.🎹🎧🎤🎵👍

It was a low-budget video production -- just ONE camera centerstage. In fact, this might just be a smartphone video from the audience. Usually at their older shows, there were multiple cameras, so it didn't matter where the dancers were relative to speakers or other large equipment. Also low-budget in the size of the band. To fill the stage, they had to spread the dancers far stage-right and musicians far stage-left.

Otherwise I'm hoping yet to see a lot more concerts from the Kid
