Gigolo Tony ~ Smurf Rock You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

Used to hear 1580 KDAY play this song on the radio everytime my buddy and I would jump in his Fiat to head down to Pico/Hoover in L.A. to pickup party-favors. So often, that we used to call this, as well as a few other songs of that era, "Pico/Hoover Music". Although, that's probably TMI, lol. | |

I don't remember the song being played on the radio, but people in the neighborhood would either play the tape on their boomboxes or in a car.
