  3. It's a small price to pay for the joy and happiness he brings.
  4. I used to have one of those...he went by the name of Corey I think he's made the rounds, 'cept he changed his name when he got to me. Man! This visitor thing is intriguing, maybe we ought to start the CIAO.
  5. By all means, we couldn't forget the Flamingos.
  6. I've seen that coming for a long time, it ain't rocket science; diversity without assimilation, scio-economic classes, etc.
  7. Y'all're probably correct. I never watched MG at night, just the morning/afternoon(syndicated) shows. Wasn't that Nancy Sinatra, of "These Boots Were Made For Walking" fame, that sang "The Beat Goes On?" No wait, that was Sonny and Cher that did "The Beat Goes On(?)." I didn't know Rich had a daughter, much less a singing daughter until I clicked the link in this thread.
  8. This is gonna be one high-paying mountain out of a molehill. Some people have no class when it comes to money (or running their big mouth).

  10. Oh, come on. There is some fine music you're missing out on. I have a modest collection, mainly compilations. I dig it and listen to the 50s and 60s channels on sirius radio often. Great music to grill or cook by... Oh oh oh oh I got a girl named Rama Lama, Rama Lama Ding dong she's everything to me Rama Lama, Rama Lama Ding dong I'll never set her free For she's mine, all mine Oh oh oh oh I got a girl named Rama Lama, Rama Lama Ding Dong, She's fine to me, Rama Lama, Rama Lama Ding dong You don't believe that she's mine, all mine I love her, love her, lover her so.

If so, oh gawd, I think I'm gonna hurl. I didn't care for that stuff the first time around either. I was more into Fats Domino, Jerry Lee Lewis, Little Richard and Smelvis Presley; never cared for Chuck Berry either. Don't pay attention to any of it anymore; PBS's fundraisers broke me, for sure.

  12. Pretty sure the bandleader was Mort Lindsey. Maybe so, but, if I recall correctly, Sheldon was featured and mentioned quite a bit. Maybe Lindsey left and Sheldon took over(?). Also, I don't recall a big band, per se, just three of four horns, etc.
  13. Yeah, H'wood's gotta make money, which is why a Monk biopic is a serious longshot. Much as i love him, Monk's story is pretty uneventful by biopic standards. It has nothing to do with "sensationalism" in this case, but more the fact that nobody outside the classic jazz community knows who he is and he didn't do anything worthy of dramatizing his life story. Not gonna happen... Agreed. But, I never heard of Monk's battle with demons and drugs until recently because it wasn't broadcasted like e.g. Parker's. I honestly thought that he was just eccentric. I never paid any attention to those portions of musicians' lives anyhow and chose to always concentrate on their great music. My point, sensationalism, is if Horrywood wanted to make money it'd have to play up the dope and mental illness angles, probably almost ignore his great music.
  14. Groan - feed that man to an irritated crocodile. MG After while Crocodile.
  15. Not I. Cat Anderson Felix Sylvester
  16. Ooooooh! Aaaahhhhhh! Those Oooohs and Aaahhhs are classics. The man could act interested over the most boring stories from his guests. Merv was a real pro, a the-show-must-go-on type of guy. I was an adult and could stay up late for Carson.
  17. That's one tuff hombre. Wonder why anybody would have a crocodile for a pet, and in Moscow?
