  • Call On Me was originally made by Thomas Bangalter (half of Daft Punk) and DJ Falcon. Thomas Bangalter and DJ Falcon typically would only play it during live sets, despite demand to release it. Eric heard it, made it himself, and had Steve Winwood redo the vocals. Thomas Bangalter later states that he regrets not officially releasing the song. Multiple white label releases were made of it.
  • The Op-Yop was a toy marketed in the 1960's by a company based in Royal Oak, Michigan called Kramer Designs. The company's original location was an office on Adams in the neighboring community of Birmingham. The history we could find was based on a Time Magazine article in 1968 where it was stated that a million of the Op-Yops had been sold and another million were expected to sell by Christmas.

I tracked down the original molder who made the parts and talked to some home workers who assembled them at their homes from 1967 through 1968. The toy was labeled as a psychedelic sensation and was skin packaged on 4-1/4 inch by 14 inch printed chipboard.
