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.
