Subject: Help! Name that tune.
I would be grateful for any help in identifying for a relation a song which I have been told is from the early 80's.
All they can remember is that the main and possibly only lyric was someting like Chico Rock (not sure on spelling) and that it was popular in discos in the UK sometime in the early 80's.
Searchs in hit singles books and through Google (with various spelling combinations) have drawn a blank.
Thanks

Are you sure that it's Chico Rock and not "Rock the Casbah" by the Clash?
