A look back at the

    B-100 Boogie Machine 

        and Sound Promotions Audio

 Disco in Wengan Switzerland were I got the idea for the mobile music business in July of 1972. In this Photo, Paul and Wendy Berry, Diane Pitz and Dancin' Dean from Coronado..

 .

The first mobile music console built in 1972. The cassette and Reel to reel tape machines looked impressive but were a pain to use. Dropped them in the second design. The Speaker cabinets (below) contained 2 15" Altec speakers and Atlas P.A. Horn. Speakers sounded great with Mobile Music or as Band Speakers.

   Marketing the Boogie Machine:

One of the Trade Shows where I promoted the Boogie Machine. This one was the 1976 AES show in Los Angeles.  

Would you buy a car from this guy?              I wish I still had the outfit it would be great at 70s parties.

                  Remember Turntables?

    

I remember getting the call from Bobby Rich that we were number one. From a classical station in April 1975 to number Radio station in San Diego 2 years later is fantastic.
