# Vinnie Bell

Vincent Edward Gambella (July 28, 1932 – October 3, 2019), known as Vinnie Bell, was an American session guitarist, instrument designer and pioneer of electronic effects in pop music.

## Life and career

Vinnie Bell was born in Brooklyn, New York City, and studied guitar from childhood. He made his first recordings as a session musician on singles by such instrumental groups as the Overtones and the Gallahads, and played in nightclubs in New York City in the late 1950s. During this time, he developed his characteristic "watery" guitar sound, popular in instrumental recordings in the 1960s. By 1962, Bell decided to devote his energies to working as a studio musician in New York and Los Angeles. In 1963, he did a session with the French Jean-Jacques Perrey for Kai Winding, in which he played the guitar and Perrey played the Ondioline. After that Vinnie along with Perrey recorded several successful commercials, when Jean-Jacques got a contract with the Vanguard Records label. Perrey asked him to be the lead guitarist for his recording sessions as "E.V.A." from Moog Indigo (1970).
He also helped design a number of electric guitar models with the company Danelectro for its Coral™ line of instruments, including the "Bellzouki" electric 12-string guitar, and the electric sitar, which was used, not necessarily by Bell, on such hits as "Cry Like a Baby" by The Box Tops, "Green Tambourine" by The Lemon Pipers, and a cover of the love theme from the 1970 film, Airport. The last of these sold over one million copies and was awarded a gold disc. It also won a Grammy Award for Best Instrumental Composition in 1971, while Bell was nominated for Best Instrumental Performance.
As well as being notable for his technical innovations, Bell worked extensively as a session player, playing on tracks such as "The Sounds of Silence" by Simon & Garfunkel and for artists such as The Four Seasons and Bob Dylan, specifically his "Desire" album. He also recorded occasionally under his own name, his albums including The Soundtronic Guitar of Vincent Bell (Independent Record Company, 1960), Whistle Stop (Verve, 1964), and Pop Goes the Electric Sitar (Decca, 1967).
He died on October 3, 2019, at the age of 87.

## History

Meals for Millions was originally founded by Henry Borsook, a Caltech biochemist, and Clifford Clinton, a California restaurateur. Dr. Borsook and Mme. Soulange Berzceller, a skilled French cook, together developed Multi-Purpose Food (MPF), a high-protein food supplement that could be made for just three cents per 2-ounce meal. This led to the founding of Meals for Millions as a not-for-profit organization in 1946. Clinton funded the first years of MFM's operation, which then relied on public donations.
During the first ten years, 6.5 million pounds (36 million meals) of MPF were distributed to relief agencies in 129 countries, including the United States. The original MPF consisted of composed of 68.0% of soy grits, 23.4% dehydrated vegetables, and 8.6% seasonings. In late 1950s, the MPF was reformulated to simply contain toasted defatted soy grits with vitamins and minerals. This new food was 50% protein by weight and completely pre-cooked. Each 2-ounce serving provided more than one-third of a 70 kilograms (150 lb) adult's daily needs for protein and 10 vitamins and minerals. MPF was made by General Mills in Minneapolis until 1980.
By 1965 the MFM has also started working on education and technology transfer as a way to reduce hunger lastingly under the new technological advisor Mark Sterner. MPF plants run by local people were set up in Japan, Brazil, Mexico, and Korea. The USAID starting funding MFM since 1973. In 1976, MFM developed a low-cost extrusion cooker for making the MPF.
In 1976, Peter Davies took over as MFM's technical advisor. The MFM began implementing Applied Nutrition Programs, focusing on the health and nutrition of mothers and children. In 1979, the MFM merged with the American Freedom from Hunger Foundation (founded 1961). The MPF stopped being made by MFM in 1980.
In 1988, the organization was officially renamed the Freedom From Hunger Foundation. In the same year, it developed the world's first integrated microcredit health and nutrition education program called "Credit with Education".
In 1991, the organization was renamed simply to Freedom From Hunger. It was merged into Grameen foundation in 2016.
