421 Jimmy Jones (1937-2012) “Handy Man” 1960

“The initial ‘COMMA COMMA COMMA COMMA COMCOM’ was neither a punctuational lesson, a political statement, nor a computer program – it was Jimmy’s reaction to a radio station call-letter jingle for Oklahoman KOMA-AM radio. Huge hit, too, firing falsetto with glee and fi-nesse” (Maury Dean, Rock and Roll: Gold Rush, 2003).
