		As Cowbridge would later recount, Bogerman’s sole directives were to “Nix the French words and add some crazy sounds for the kids.” Under pressure, Cowbridge drew his inspiration from a seemingly unlikely source.
		In this age of digital miracles, it’s essential to remember that Cowbridge’s “storm of burps” assemblage was a tape-splicing tour-de-force, one that’s been studied in excruciating detail by several generations of would-be audio wizards.
		After all, Cowbridge hadn’t been a teenager for a decade, and even then he was surely too busy slinging a slide rule to have rocked, rumbled or loitered in “soda pop shops.” (The lingo, no doubt, is a vestige of Cowbridge’s Canton, Ohio, upbringing.)
