<br>Thanks Cee & Marie...I hadn't heard that song in forever! Yes...Chauncey's is now luxury condos.A friend of mine lives across the street & she's quite happy not to have drunks peeing on her fence,car,house etc..anymore.

I see Ground Zero posted. It is my favorite song by Aku Aku.
That's so funny about Chauncey's. That place was crazy. To find a parking spot was an all nighter. I would have hated to live over there when it was opened.

RE: Curtie & the Boom Box – Let’s Talk It Over in the Ladies Room

Holy crap! The last (and only) time I've heard this song was when I bought a Eurythmics - "Would I Lie to You" 12" Single. I brought it home, took it out of the shrinkwrap, put it on my player, and instead of Eurythmics, I hear this weird song about "talking it over in the ladies room." At first I thought, "Man, this is some bizarre remix!"

Now, here's the kicker... I returned the record! To this day, I wish I had kept it and just bought a second copy instead. I hear misprinted records can be worth some $$ since they are so rare.

What's worse, is my brother, who bought a copy when I did, also had a misprinted record, and he returned his too! (We returned them at the same time.)

If only I had a DeLorean based time machine...

What a thread of good "forgotten" music! Does anyone have Aku Aku "The Night Belongs to Charlie"?
Gracias!

Not the Ramones. You'll probably recognize the song when you hear it.[/quote]I recall a version of this that ends abruptly. But this rip sounds so clean it could well be from a CD! Thanks for posting!

This is probably the version you recall:

marie3,

Do you have any info about Aku Aku? Unknown to me but the songs posted here are extremely cool! Google was leaving me high and dry.

Thanks,
