One last tidbit some of you might appreciate: Richard Bugg worked at
PAIA for short period of time in the early '70s. Later, he was
contracted by Simonton to compose and perform the first PAIA demo
record. I think the title of the tune was "Epsilon Bootis." Somewhat
to RB's embarrassment, they continued to send out those little pink
soundsheets for quite a few years.
