I just read a few moments ago of the sad news on Stephen Kent Goodman's
passing.  I am very shocked to say the least.  He was an invaluable
resource and a great influence in the mechanical realm.  Stephen was
one of the restorers of the magnificent Robot Band, just one of his
many projects, which can be seen here:

Stephen is referred to as "having more credits to his name in
mechanical music than at the end of a Star Wars movie," in the above
article.

I know that all of us will miss him greatly and we all send Kelly our
deepest sympathies and prayers.  This is going to be a hard time for
those closest to him.
