For you music heads, CW McCall's real name is Chip Davis and after
having some fun with advertising, went on to form  Manheim
SteamRoller.  Quite a stretch from 70's Bubba CB schtick to real
quality tunes.  He also headed up an Old Home Bread series of
commercials where this truck driver and truck stop waitress were
doing some funny comedy-based commercials selling Old Home Bread
using more of the CW McCall type jingles in the background.  Not sure
how widespread the commercials ran, but I saw them on the TV in Iowa
back in the day.  We still have an Old Home Bread outlet store here
in Cedar Falls in which we shop at regularly.

Vanagon Content:  I have a Manheim Steamroller CD in my CD changer in my 90 GL.
