But dad kept pestering the guy to get the record, so he figured it must have been hot if my dad wanted it so bad. He finally got it, played it and called my dad, who was a teen, into the store. The guy said: "Is this the piece of sh-t you've been so eager to get? It Sucks! What is wrong with you? You are slipping..." Of course my dad defended it. The store owner and my dad argued and cussed back and forth...Dad stopped going into the store... for about a week. He still has What Kind of Lady and still plays it loud. To appreciate it and get the full impact, What Kind of Lady should not be played on some tinny- sounding player. You gotta play it loud.
