CommentsRecorded at: Gone Gator One, Los Angeles, CA. Mixed at: Gone Gator One, Los Angeles, CA and The Village Recorder, Los Angeles, CA (MCA Records) David A. Stewart appears courtesy of RCA Records. Maxine and Julia Waters appear courtesy of RCA Records "That was Dave Stewart's white boys trying to do R&B thing," Howie shrugs. "Dave Stewart and I wrote that song the same day we wrote 'Don't Come Around Here No More,' Tom says. "He wanted to do a Stax kind of thing. We cut that really quick with the Heartbreakers in my studio. Never one of my favorites, really. I guess it's a funky rocking thing but it never really drove me crazy."
