I heard this on Karen Stern's show one afternoon in 1980.  Rare tune,
rare artist.  Not the standard fare of your typical AOR station. — Tim Warden

i remember this Album from 1973 playing late one night after midnight
and was immediately hooked on the group. I still have them on my
playlist to this day. I worked the communications mid watch at Davis
Monthan FD and always enjoyed your playlists!  — Michael McNerney

In the summer of 1979, one of KWFM's DJs (I cannot recall whom)
previewed this song or one of the others that would be frequently
played on the station. He prefaced the playing of sme of the songs by
explaining the artists' real names (Vander and Young), that they had a
very popular and recognizable hit in the 60s as the group the
Easybeats..."Friday on my Mind", and that they were producing the then
relatively new band ACDC. That is where the Young of the pair comes in.
I later retrieved the above information for I had forgotten it or was
not paying close enough attention at the time. What I do remember is
that I had never heard this megaphone "rap" style before or since.
Perhaps Puffy (or Diddy) will catch on and steal this music as he has
done in his career. Anyway,it rocks musicaly and lyrically.  — tman

I remember hearing this once or twice around Christmas or New Year's,
maybe in 1978.  It just goes with the season so well! — Tim

Every bit as avant garde as Mr. Zappa, Bob Cooke spun this disco bashing
tune after announcing a "first" on KWFM : a cut from a recent Bee Gees
album.  The later was ceremoniously destroyed, the diamond noisily
raked across the vinyl. — Tim
