Base-class method access

Hi.

Is it possible for a derived class to access overridden methods of its
base class? For example:


class Foo:
      def frob():
          print "Spam"

class Bar(Foo):
      def frob():
          print "Eggs"
          # In C#, the syntax to call Foo's frob() would be
          # base.frob()
          <Insert Python-appropriate syntax for that call here>

>> a = Bar()
>> a.frob()
Eggs
Spam

Is there a means of doing this in Python? 

Thanks in advance.
