Frank Zappa worked part-time there in 1965 as a salesman in the singles department. Radio ads featured Wallichs, who would sing the jingle "It's Music City" (to the first notes of "Rock-a-bye Baby," with the following four bars covered by a jazz ensemble), followed by news of specials, upcoming events, etc. In 1963, the vocal group The Pleasures recorded the song "Music City" as a tribute to the store.
