Where it came from
Released in 1981 on the independent RCS Records label, this single represents a piece of obscure regional novelty music. It was produced in the spirit of lighthearted, genre-bending tracks that were popular in smaller radio markets, drawing on the distinct stylistic sensibilities of Cajun Ken Cooper and The B Jocks. The project served as a creative outlet for its creators, reflecting a niche interest in quirky, upbeat, and often humorous storytelling through song.
The record occupies a space within the broad landscape of mid-century independent Americana, where artists often self-funded or utilized small labels to circulate their unique sound. While the design and intent were aimed at local airplay and regional jukeboxes, the record has since become a curiosity for collectors interested in the variety of sounds that emerged from the independent recording scene during the early 1980s.
