musicalmason is an unknown quantity at this point
bob dorough wrote (and preformed) the majority of the songs for school house rock, with his biggest hit being conjuntion junction. He lives near me here in the delaware water gap. He was commissioned to write a piece for the COTA cats honors band at the delarware water gap celebration of the arts last year. I was in that band and had the pleace of working with him for about 2 weeks, on both the song he wrote (entilted crossword puzzle which was lots of fun) and he helped us on the other songs we were doing. SInce that band I have seen him around a couple times while playing in bars in such, he always remembered my name and is always willing to help. Hes a great guy and very active in the local jazz scene. Im sure he would be estatic to know you like his work, especially conjuntion juntion, he still has a tendency to play it while out gigging. He also has two cd's out right now (probably more but I have 2) entilted too much coffee and whos on first. both these cds are lots of fun and feature a lot of original songs, if you can track them down Id highly reccomend them. Anyway, sorry for the rant Im just a big fan of his after getting to know him and such.
