Playboy, 1962
Written by Marvin Gaye, William "Mickey" Stevenson, and George Gordy
There could be a whole album of songs whose titles are telephone numbers, but this one would be one of the top three, easily. The narrator tells this guy not to be shy; she's waiting patiently to get to know him! "And my number is Beechwood 4-5789 / You can call me up and have a date any old time." Rather forward for 1962, eh what? Fun fact: Marvin Gaye played drums on this track! Terrific girl-group vocals and a powerhouse Funk Brothers band make this song a keeper.
