I wonder how many of The Wrecking Crew (of which Mr. Campbell was a member) are still alive?

did you ever watch the movie as I urged you to do?

Oh, hells yeah.

And thank you for doing so.

I also watched the documentary on the Muscle Shoals scene. Also very good.

It's neat learning how those great old songs came together.

Speaking of Kaye and Campbell, she was the one who came up with the basic melody for one of Campbell's biggest hits, and I CANNOT remember which one. Wichita Lineman, maybe.

Also, Dick Gregory died Saturday night.

He was 84.

Jay Thomas, dead at 69.

The headline that I clicked read "Cheers Favorite Jay Thomas Dies At 69"...

Jay Thomas (at the time appearing on Cheers as Carla's boyfriend/husband/whatever) that he had the hardest job in Hollywood, he had to kiss Rhea Perlman. They killed him off the show after that. His character was run over by A Zamboni. Yeah, I would call that being a favorite.

YouTube 'Jay Thomas Lone Ranger Story', though, you won't be disappointed. Very funny. There is more than one instance of him telling this story on Letterman, it's kind of a tradition.

Tobe Hooper, director of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, died this past Saturday. He also adapted Salem's Lot into the 1979 mini-series. Didn't know that.
