And I listened to it all the time.

Who were some of your favorites at that time?

I want to go back to the Satins, the Moonglows, all of that, Chuck Berry, Fats Domino, all of them.

And I'd leave my uncle's house on Sunset and go down to Wallach's Music City.

Wallach's was the music store, probably the biggest in the West Coast.

And you'd go in and they had these little booths.

And you'd go in and you'd take your vinyl and you'd go in and listen to records all day.

Okay.

And there was one record I loved.

It was the number one record in the country.

It was called Stranded in the Jungle by the Cadets.

Now, I know you know your music, but I don't know that you remember that one.

I don't know that one.

Okay.

So Stranded in the Jungle was huge.

And in the interim, I was reading a book.

When I had to go back to Canada, I had this book for a book report that I had to write out, do a whole essay on.

And it was called Prester John.

And the premise was a town in Africa called Blauwald de Bisfonte.

And I was fascinated by this little village, Blauwald de Bisfonte.
