In the mid-80's, if you were to test-drive a GM product, the sound system demo tape they used included Roseanna. The tape was produced by Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs (they make alot of the audiophile gold CDs you see). The song was included at the insistence of MFSL's CFO, Rose Ann MacKinnon, my late aunt.
