Although I didn't live that close to Ft. Wayne when I was a kid, I do 
remember hearing Bob and the "chickens." Hearing the Little Red Barn 
theme on the web site brings back memories of the 60s. That's back when 
they actually would have live musicians in the studio at times. Perhaps 
WOWO will do a tribute and maybe even revive the "Hill Toppers."
