LOL! I have worked jobs listening to "101 Strings" playing The Chipmunk Song and the like! "A Crumhorn Christmas". I love it! How about "A Schaum Christmas"!!? Incidently, I happen to be nerdy enough to own and PLAY all of the recorders!

How about "A Schaum Christmas"!!? Incidently, I happen to be nerdy enough to own and PLAY all of the recorders!

A guy in my "band" just bought a wood job with which to cue a couple of a capella angels singing "Oh Come, O Come Emmanuel". He spends half the play trying to keep the thing warm so that it's in key, which is ironic since the singers are already off in microtoneland by the time they sing "come".

Oh God, it hurts, it hurts...

101 Strings was just a label name for recordings made by different studio musicians. There were some psychedelic recordings made in the 1960s that collectors look for (but those albums mix genuine "strings" cuts with the jam band).

Slightly off topic, there were all sorts of musicians who worked as studio musicians (Glenn Campbell recorded hundreds of surf songs if I recall and Jimmy Page recorded for many bands before getting his own). Even the jazz band Sun Ra Arkestra recorded a "Batman" record under the "Surf Guitars of Dan and Dale" front name (they are not on the other "Dan and Dale" records).
