Description

Inspiration for the 1985 David Lee Roth hit, this best-known Prima version of the two-song combo debuted as an album track in his 1956 LP “The Wildest!”

Prima had first combined these two tunes in the mid-1940s. Here is how it sounded on his 1945 V-Disc release: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZvJfgV_B_ZA

And this was a 1947 commercial release of “Just A Gigolo” (by itself) that Prima recorded for the Majestic label: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WiWc-1ZUPps
