Detailed Description Containing Key Facts: "In Praise Of Older Women And Other Crimes" is a studio album by the flamboyant and genre-bending American band Kid Creole and The Coconuts, led by the charismatic August Darnell (Kid Creole). Released in 1985, the album continues their unique fusion of big band swing, Latin music (salsa, calypso), disco, funk, and new wave, all wrapped in a theatrical, often humorous, narrative style. The album's themes often explore witty observations on relationships, urban life, and cultural quirks, delivered with Darnell's sophisticated lyrics and the group's signature blend of brassy arrangements, infectious rhythms, and the vibrant backing vocals of The Coconuts. While perhaps not as commercially successful as their earlier hits like "Annie, I'm Not Your Daddy," this album remains a fan favorite for its intelligent songwriting, unique sound, and the band's continued commitment to their distinctive musical persona.
