		Without doubt, Joey Gallo was one of America's most interesting and colorful mobsters, a psychopathic chameleon, a predator who was able to transcend the image of brutal thug even as he embraced its grim reality, a fact which people as diverse as Robert Kennedy and Jimmy Breslin recognized.
		Not only was he able to interview Gallo before his death, he was also able to extensively interview Gallo's ex-wife, his daughter, and those who were his friends and foes during his turbulent, incandescent lifetime.

		This problem presents itself most explicitly and awkwardly in "Joey," a hymn to Joey Gallo, the self-educated Mafioso who quelled an Attica riot and then, upon his release, precipitated, with his brothers, the most vicious modern mob war.
		Joey was heroic because he spent his time in prison "Readin' Nietzsche and Wilhelm Reich," because he came out of prison dressed like Jimmy Cagney.
		In which case it is hardly relevant that Joey Gallo did not carry a personal weapons and much more understandable that he himself was gunned down in front of his family.

		The song was generally reviled upon release, as it came only 3 years after Gallo's death in 1973, and the memory of his cruelty and blood-letting was fresh enough so that the portrait in the song rang false (and still does for anyone who knows the facts of Gallo's life).
		Gallo had a brief moment as a celebrity mobster upon his release from a long prison term, during the short time he tried to make his crew a full-fledged mob family.
		"Joey" is a pretty effective outlaw ballad by standards of the genre, but it is a distortion of the reality of Joey Gallo.
