Fresh Fruit in Foreign Places is the sophomore album by American disco/Latin group Kid Creole and the Coconuts.
Describing the album's concept to The New York Times, band leader August Darnell said:
"One way of looking at the journey King Creole undertakes on the record is a justification of the many strains that coexist in our music. The journey is autobiographical in that it explains how the music came to be the music that it is. Kid Creole and his crew visit various islands and are influenced by the music and culture of each one... You don't just leave your influences behind you when you move on in life; you take them with you."
