I dunno if he recorded it with Van Halen, but Roth's "Just a Gigolo" is one of the funniest songs I've ever heard.

Roth recorded "Just a Gigolo" on the Crazy From The Heat four-song EP with Edgar Winter on sax, and some studio musicians. No one from Van Halen was involved, but it was produced by VH's favorite producer, Ted ("Come on Dave, gimme a break") Templeman.

It was a decent song, but the fact of the matter is that Roth didn't have an original lick on that record -- it was a 100% copy of the original Louis Prima version.

It was his first solo album, "Crazy From the Heat."

I was in a helicopter squadron, and we recorded a (very off-color) parody called "Just a Rotorhead."
