"He would drive me through the woods in his green Forest Service truck, over dirt roads, through the most beautiful forests where the trees are very tall and shafts of sunlight come down and in the mountain streams the rainbow trout leap out and their little trout sides catch glimpses of light. Then my father would drop me in the woods and go off. It was a weird, comforting feeling being in the woods. There were odd, mysterious things. That's the kind of world I grew...

Less than three years later, SBK turned around and sold the catalog to Thorn EMI, the British entertainment giant, for $295 million. As part of that deal, EMI gave $30 million to Koppelman and Bandier (Swid had left to start his own firm) to start a record...
