The Cocoa Boys? Not the Coco Boys? I spent several seconds searching using that search thingy and didn't see anything (and I don't have time to read every page of every other discussion)...
Is "The Cocoa Boys" the correct spelling?
He mentions "Joe" and "Frankie"; and we know "Joey Coco"...so...?
(Who knows...Mavis Staples and her family all have the last name "Staples"...yet they call themselves "The Staple Singers"...maybe the group name is spelled differently than the individual names?) "3123...that's next door to where the party be..." | |

I was wondering about that too. "I like to watch." | |

so, in the lyrics booklet, will the other bandname be Sandra D or Sandra Dee and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

Well, the name of my fictitious band is "ABCsandraD" (we started as a fictional band but transitioned into a fictitious one)
Of course that's short for "A Band Called Sandra Dee"
(All of our imaginary fake blond/e* hair is pseudo-natural)
*three-fourths of the band is male and one-third is female "3123...that's next door to where the party be..." | |

Wondered this myself. It's a few seconds longer than boot version, which has been back on rotation the past few days. Kangaroo! Kangaroo!

Y'all think this will have actual horns in place of Prince's guide vocals? As much as it cracks me up to hear him imitating horn noises, I'd love to hear the real thing | |

I remember seeing Cocoa on a vault pic.

While I eventually want to hear all versions of all his songs, his "imitation horn" in Coco Boys (as I will always spell it) would be near the top of my "favorite things in a Prince song (serious/nonsensical/whatever)" list. (I haven't yet formally made such a list...so for now it is #1) "3123...that's next door to where the party be..." | |

I am in such deep despair...
(At first my heart filled with immense joy knowing this other being thought my topic was wonderful...until I was deflated in realizing that it was apparently using such razor-sharp wit to demean my topic instead. I shan't recover.) "3123...that's next door to where the party be..." | |
