But I do like David Lindley's first album from '81, "El Rayo-X". This sort of manages to get both the "o" and the "x" in one name. My favorite song on the album is a very nice version of the classic Mercury Blues. Here's a link to it replete with pix of nice classic Mercuries.
How about Solex carburettors? My first car had a Solex - my family had quite a few cars with them at the time. Most people seem to prefer Webers as the parts supply is better, but our Solexes worked just fine.
Good call on Memorex; I had forgotten about them but I always loved the ads with Ella Fitzgerald.
