APRIL STEVENS

If anybody remembers April at all, it's probably the recording of "Deep Purple" that she did with her brother, Nino Tempo. Unless you are awfully old, which is not likely because old people don't do blogs unless they are in their second or third childhood like me, you never heard April's "Teach Me Tiger" and "Gimme a little kiss." That's your loss. They were pretty close to auditory pornography. She looked pretty hot, too. What blood I have left gets overheated at the mention of her name. I would try to play my old 45 but it might spontaneously combust. Or maybe I would.

  1. I'm here to tell you that the phrase "auditory pornography," while an ambitious description to live up to, is pretty much what that song is. I found a YouTube clip with the song and put it on my blog -- and I also found a Wikipedia article about April Stevens that mentioned the scandal about the sexually suggestive song.
