Over the years Ken
R LLC compiled and sold 7 "Power-Pellas" volumes. Each CD
contained 99 tracks of generic (no call letters) material
produced by PAMS. Included were a capellas, shouts, sonovox cuts
and other evergreen elements suitable for enhancing
oldies-formatted radio stations and DJ shows. Most vocal cuts
featured the original PAMS Dallas singers, while others were
sung by Ken R's Toledo group.
While the Power-Pellas CDs
are no longer available for purchase, we thought the
Power-Pellas demos and Ken's original disc descriptions deserved
a place on this website as a part of radio jingle history.
Enjoy! (You might be interested in the
Pro-Pak Demos too.)

including three tempos of all hit music, double
play, triple play, $ million music, more hits, the
most music (three new versions of that phrase),
music mutha , the music's on us, non-stop music

murmurs." The group shouts double play, groovin',
number one, triple play and on the go. Then you get
some amusing drop in cuts where the group says in
unison "ha…ha…ha…" That one will work perfectly for
your bad jokes. And speaking of jokes, how would you
like Trella laughing? You get two versions of that
plus Peyton Parks doing his patented James Brown
screaming. Cuts 83-86 can be used for call-ins and
contests. You get the Sonovox saying "call now," and
the male group singing "thanks for the call" and

groovy 70s phrases including: come together with
peace and love, getting' it together, love power,
