Far out, solid and right on, Frank! "Peace, Love, Powder Ridge!!". Or

Hi Pete, we made one in 1969 and one in 1970. The first was a commercial
product that we had no control over. The second was entitled "Beasts and
Fiends", produced at Record Plant in New York by us and the sound
engineers Jack Hunt (Electric Ladyland, Woodstock), Dave Ragno
(Woodstock) and Tom Fly (Woodstock, former member of Lothar and the Hand
People).

I tried to borrow Felix Pappalardi's M400 for the sessions, but he
wouldn't give it up, so no Tron. Perhaps one of the other members of
this group can tell you what eventually happened to his Tron.

I believe that the guts of Felix's M-400 now reside in Vermont as part of Jerry Korb's JK Mark 6. Only the good professor knows for sure.

Hi Pete,

A friend of mine put them on CDs a few years ago. If they're still 
playable (he had a bad run of CD-Rs), I'll try to get some MP3s on 
the web.

Pete, here's a page that I threw together this weekend:

http://www.leisureland.us/audio/charisma/charisma.html

The Tron tunes are only in the 73-76 section at the bottom.

Hi Pete,

No, that's Bob Mocarsky. Mike didn't play on the albums. He plays 
keyboards on the non-album stuff at the bottom of the page.
