Bell's Blues (Conclusion)

Today, I had a chance to ask his widow, Laurie, about this story. She confirmed that it did happen, and he came home from work that day excited, and told her and their 3 daughters about the event. And sure enough, shortly thereafter, the song became a hit on the radio, and M.T.V., in those ancient days when they actually played music. This news brightened my day considerably, and I'm happy to share it with you; so when you next hear that song, remember my good buddy, Mark Trotiner, the uncredited genius behind it. tom bell
