'Trackerbar Stomp' Begins "Sunday Morning"
By George Bogatko

At last, riches beyond the dreams of avarice are within my grasp.
The story about QRS on CBS "Sunday Morning" started off with "The
Trackerbar Stomp" by yours truly.  They also used it as the playoff
music for the show.

The show, alas, was not entirely about my genius (their loss) or the
roll's being issued for the Player Piano centennial,  but did feature
Judy Carmichael, which actually was more interesting.  Also, it showed
Charles Osgood playing piano -- He's really good!!!  (Yes, that was him
playing, for those of you who saw the show.)

At any rate, I'm having a good chuckle about it -- I've even put "As
featured on CBS Sunday Morning" on the WWW page, laughing as I typed
it.  I'm sure if I beat up BMI I can get maybe $0.92 in royalties out
of them, and I'm sure they would consider that generous.

Cheers,

 [ I think maybe Osgood asked for a good hot number, and our friend
 [ Bob Berkman pulled it from the shelf!  Congratulations, George!
