I know the guy who...

...wrote the bass guitar line at the end of the film. It's from "Rapper's Delight," by the Sugar Hill Gang, who are considered to be the founders of what we now know as "rap music." A friend of mine who lived down the street from me, Hank Jackson, eventually became "Big Bank Hank," one of the three original members of SHG.

The film is really terrific, and they even have a film of filming it, to show that there's no hanky-panky with computer graphics involved. A true "Rube Goldberg" apparatus, it's a monument to obsession/compulsion.

Best,
WMD
