"Tritsch Tratsch Polka" Ampico Roll
By Ed Gaida

When I purchased the assets of Custom Music Rolls, formerly owned by
Janet and Richard Tonnesen, Janet saw to it that I received _all_ of
the assets, including the music files.  I knew that Bill Flynt had
been involved with coding and arranging Ampico rolls so I contacted him.
He was most gracious and gave me permission to issue many of the rolls
he arranged and others that he coded, including performances by
Liberace.

"Tritsch Tratsch Polka" was among the files received and I issued it
along with about 25 other rolls in which Bill used his tremendous
talents.  Bill agreed to let me stamp his signature on every roll, via
a rubber stamps made from his signature.  Needless to say the rolls
sold briskly and many of the titles went through numerous cuttings.

If there is enough interest in the Polka, I can cut it again but I will
need at least five confirmed orders with payment in advance.  The cost
for the roll including USPS Media Mail postage is $18.00.

Let me know if you are interested.  "Jungle Echoes" could be available
if there is enough interest.  Needless to say, I do not sell MIDI files
of anything.
