All singles from "Don't Call Us..." on appeared on the Claridge label ✨️History✨️ Sugarloaf was an American rock band that originated under the name Chocolate Hair in 1968 formed in Denver, Colorado In 1973 Liberty decided to drop all their artists and Sugarloaf was in limbo as Jerry Corbetta signed to Neil Bogart's Brut Records label Bogart had created/distributed via his Buddah Records imprint for the Brut Fabergé company The next album I Got a Song, released in late 1973 was started as a Corbetta solo record but ended up becoming Sugarloaf's third album when Webber and Raymond rejoined Corbetta, with drummer Larry Ferris to play on the album and once again began making live appearances. This iteration of Sugarloaf played a spot on The Midnight Special that aired on April 19, 1974 But after Brut folded, the group's future was once again in question as Corbetta and Frank Slay bought the album back from Bogart and went to a friend's recording studio in Denver in 1974 to record a new song, "Don't Call Us, We'll Call You" with session players Paul Humphries (drums) Max Bennett (bass) Ray Payne (guitar) and a group called the Flying Saucers Jason Hickman, Mikkel Saks and David Queen on harmony vocals This song was notable because it contained a practical joke at the expense of CBS Records which had just turned them down for a recording contract. The song includes the sound of a touch-tone telephone number being dialed near the beginning and ending of the song. Those numbers were an unlisted phone number at CBS Records in Manhattan ("area code 212" stated in the song) coincidentally a public number at the White House as well (different area code) In addition, the recording includes snippets of the guitar riff of The Beatles' "I Feel Fine" Stevie Wonder's "Superstition" and a line of dialogue from disc jockey Ken Griffin imitating Wolfman Jack (who would later perform the song live with the group on their Midnight Special appearance) (March 1 1975) stating the call sign of a radio station ("Stereo 92" in the nationwide release); numerous tracks of this line were cut to match local markets. "Don't Call Us..." written by Corbetta/John Carter released in Nov 1974 No. 9 in April 1975 the I Got a Song album was quickly re-released under the new title of Don't Call Us, We'll Call You with the hit single added in place of another track, "Easy Evil". But the album stalled out at US No. 152 Billboard 200 Corbetta died in Denver on September 16, 2016 at the age of 68 after seven-years with Pick's disease #sugarloaf #70sthrowbacksongs #70soldiessongs #musichistory #ifonlyfor59seconds
