This is what you call an odd-ball record, haven't pulled it out and played it in a while. But you have to admit, it is a tough sound and totally West Coast.
Should leave a comment, since this single is messed up in Google and pretty much every other music-related site. Like, Deezer gives you Poor Willie instead of Lonely Island. This is Lonely Island, people! Heck, just listen to the lyrics!
Are you sure this is not some other forgotten 'The Parliaments'? Party Boys/Poor Willie was the first parliafunkadelicment thang, with GC clearly on lead on the A-side. This sounds completely different.
George Clinton is lead singer..and this group I think was from New Jersey ...hard to believe that George Clinton was part of the great doo wop sound..this is classic
No way that's George Clinton on lead. That's got to be Fuzzy on lead. George was one of the background singers, but was the main songwriter and the creative "leader" of the group.

These are the "ORIGINAL" original Parliaments BEFORE Fuzzy, Grady, Ray, and Calvin.
