Puppet On A String is class.

Gino also owned a wig store off Grand River Avenue.

I sat next to him at a free Little Richard concert 12 years ago.

Only in Detroit!

[I'm guessing Tomangoes has something to do with the fruit - African connections?]

Hi David,

That's very interesting that Gino owned a wig store.  With him having a release on Dewtroit's W.I.G. Records  ("Romeo"), I have to think that Wig was his label, or, that he was, at least, a part owner.
