[@DrJPhoenixx]

Wow! I remember this song on Clockwork Records...white label, and it was under "Garrett's Crew." I wondered what happened to them...

[@falsealarmno]

Valissa Big Up to Mr. Garrett. Which is my mother's maiden name. I remember buying this LP in 84, tho it came out in 83. 33ys later, I'm still here. I used to watch guys pop to this in talent shows.

[@weswhitham382]

Whatever happened to John ( J.D.) Mitchell ? I recorded some songs with him shortly after this & "Two Of Hearts " in 1986 & 1987 . That man could play everything , was obsessed with Q-tips & alchohol , the son of a minister , slept with his eyes wide open , & ran off with my copy of Frank Zappa' s Joe' s Garage . I loved that guy . He told me I sang with more feeling than any white boy he had ever met .

[@shawnerz98]

I had it on a high school mix tape from KPOO in CA. Played it, but didn't recognize the song. Tried Shazam and it didn't know it either. Just put in Nasty Rock, and found it here! Thanks. Great pop-lock song!
