About Primary Contributor Ken Deutsch |
|
Ken
Deutsch (2012)
My
name is Ken Deutsch, but for years I was known as
Ken R, president of Ken R. LLC. From 1980 through
2000, I owned a recording studio in Toledo, Ohio
that produced resings of PAMS jingles for clients
around the world. However, my inspiration was always
the original PAMS of Dallas, which produced
exceptional jingles between roughly 1960-1974.
(Today PAMS Productions is owned by my friend, Jon
Wolfert. You can get the full story at
www.PAMS.com.)
But before I owned the studio, I was a jingle
collector or "jingle freak" as some people put it.
That meant I would beg and borrow jingles from
friends, radio stations or DJs and get analog (and
sometimes hissy) dubs of them. I started collecting
in about 1964, but didn't know anyone else did this
until about 1970 when Jon and I began corresponding.
You mean there are OTHER folks who collect these?
Cool!
A small group of us used to exchange what we called
"sampler" tapes, which featured the best of our new
acquisitions in montage form. Jon Wolfert, Ken
Justiss, Ron Harris and a few other crazies were the
best at assembling these. I began putting together
my own "mix tapes," and had great fun with it.
In 1980 I lucked into an unusual purchase. I won't
go into the details here because the story is told
in my various books, but suffice it to say I ended
up with over 3000 reels of primo PAMS jingles from
the company itself, including the instrumental
(backing) tracks.
Since
that time I have continued to put together these
"samplers," for my own amusement and for the
amusement of a few friends. Now, through this wacky
thing called the Internet, I am able to share them
with a wider audience. I do not sell these samplers;
they are free to all who wish to enjoy them with me.
(I do sell electronic copies of my jingle books
through Kindle, available at
www.kendeutsch.com.)
If you enjoy PAMS jingles, or even jingles from
other producers, have fun! If you REALLY like PAMS
jingles, buy some from Jon Wolfert at JAM/PAMS in
Dallas!
And please feel free to write me with any comments
or suggestions!
