Greetings Jim and all,  That black M400 was redone at  (un)Sound Sales in CT,back
in the 70's. Betcha the motor is dangling at wierd angle, as we witnessed on several
other Sound Sales serviced MC's of the era......

Also, someone had asked if Fritz wrote the jingle used in the new
Cingular wireless tv ad.  I finally heard the tune during the ncaa finals
and can see why.  It has what sounds like could be a tron flute, and has
that fritzy "nasdaq feel" to it.

Yep, that was I who enquired of Fritz re: the Cingular Wireless advert. It definitely
harks back to that "Strawberrie Flootie " sound we all recognize/respond to like
Pavlov's 'Tron. Anybody else hear this advert,or am I burning too much hemp rope??

Cheers, JK
