Coatimundi is the name of a rather cute looking South American animal which is a member of the raccoon family.
Coati Mundi is also the stage name of American percussionist Andy Hernandez who pops up with Kid Creole and the Coconuts on Me No Pop I their debut single which reached number 32 in the UK singles charts in 1981.
The second of my Wigtown Community Shop purchases.
Billed as Kid Creole and the Coconuts present Coati Mundi the song appears on both the b-side and on the a-side where it segues with Que Pasa.
A real earworm -you will find yourself singing this for days!

Top tune from the days when the Ze label was a trade mark of quality.
ReplyDeleteYes, totally agree. great track and the Kid and his 'nuts were a top quality band. Saw them at Shepton Mallet once, which I always thought was a farirly surreal juxtaposition of styles.
ReplyDeleteYou purchased two top tunes CC. You can never go wrong with The Men They Couldn't Hang. And as The Swede said: ZE-Label stood for quality
