Rock Music In The Sky
From Pan American

Bob Dylan, the Masked
Marauders, Ruben and the Jets and
the Pink Floyd are now performing
eight miles high - on the aircraft of
Pan American World Airways.

They and other top names from
the current rock generation can be
heard on one channel of Pan Am's
Theatre-in-the-Air as recorded by
Radio Geronimo, Europe's first
progressive radio station. The
format is similar to a disc jockey
show, with a host from
Monaco-based Radio Geronimo
introducing the numbers and
providing commentary.

The current program includes
Dylan's "Little Sadie" from his Self
Portrait album, "More of Less
Hudson's Bay Again" by the Masked
Marauders, "Jelly Roll Gum Drop"
by Ruben and the Jets, "Outside
Love" by the Brethren, and "Come
in No. 51" by the Pink Floyd from
the soundtrack of "Zabriskie
Point."

Pan Am's Theatre-in-the-Air
entertainment offers a choice of
eight channels catering to musical
tastes from classical to modern.
