From the counter

Frankie Smith released this one in 1981, and his name and Bloom's both turn up again on the writing credits of a Snoop Dogg record in 2000. Start here and you get to hear where that later song's roots are.

Frankie Smith drove that bus, but William Bloom's name sits right beside his on the writing credit. Follow Bloom and you find out who else was riding along.

Frankie co-wrote this one with William Bloom and put it out himself in 1980, and Devin Vasquez brought it back around in 2002. Same bus, two decades apart, so ride it both ways and see which stop you like.
