You haven't posted a sample, but going from memory, isn't it something like Simpliciter Sans (set in all caps)?

Actually, the ends aren't rounded. It's an odd typeface.

Oh, right. So much for my memory.

That's a strange S.

Century Gothic, Futura Condensed, and Avant Garde Condensed could get you close.

Definitely not Helvetica with an "R" like that. Oddly compressed "S" in both "JACKSON" and "BELUSHI"...

Yes, it is indeed odd.
