by Bil CarpenterRaised in Minneapolis, Georgio plays a variety of instruments and is something of an imitation of Prince, one of his musical influences. In the mid '80s, he scored with funk-styled dance cuts such as "Tina Cherry" and "Lover's Lane." Exotically handsome looks assured him female admiration, but his inflated ego and verbal attacks on artistry of Prince and Michael Jackson turned disc jockeys off.
