Yeah, that was Gotti. Those were the apartment tapes. If I remember correctly, he was in a tirade about guys getting caught on tape using the words cosa nostra. He said something to the effect that "if they even get caught saying 'la' they're going."

Of course the irony is that Gotti put more words on tape than the Beatles.


more ironic too; not only did gotti put more words on tape than the beatles, but wasn't he himself constantly saying "Cosa Nostra" on tape? "This is a Cosa Nostra", "We are a Cosa Nostra", etc...
