Great show.  Even heard a couple of Ape Calls.  Boy!  You can really hear 
that beautiful monster work, can't you?  Man I loved that machine!  If 
that's at all Possible.
Do you want about 30 minutes of the great Dino Summerlin on the Brennan?  I 
can E-mail it it's from 1964 and it was in storage for a long time so it's 
kinda distorted, but it's off the air.
