Ice Cream Man -
This was written and originally recorded by Chicago Blues musician John Brim. Born in 1922, Brim recorded this at Chess Records in 1953. In 1994, he released a compilation album called The Ice Cream Man.
This is one of David Lee Roth's favorites. He pushed to get it on Van Halen's first album as a tribute to the Blues.
The first verse is just Roth singing and playing acoustic guitar. The full band joins in after that.
Like many American Blues songs, the lyrics are loaded with sexual imagery.....kinda like "Up For Breakfast".
