I heard he started drinking himself to death after his child died as an infant 20 years ago. Sad.

Yes, the poor kid was only six months old. I can’t even imagine.

Dang. Some characters are so iconic it’s hard to remember that they didn’t spring fully formed from Zeus’ forehead, and that each piece of them had to be carefully chosen and assembled. The Blues Brothers are such characters. So, good job, and rest easy.

I was just talking to a friend about Franne and Eugene Lee the other day after Eugene Lee’s name came up in the credits of Schmigadoon. RIP Franne.

Oh, wow. I totally agree with this quote about “Astral Weeks”
“Richard was the soul of the album.” Rolling Stone ’s Griel Marcus would declare of Davis’ work “the greatest bass ever heard on a rock album.”
He’s all over those great Andrew Hill Blue Note dates too. Bobby Hutcherson’s “Dialogue” session is just brilliant. RIP

Truly, nothing to sneeze at. You know he must have been good, because the MST3K gang kept referencing him.

He’s 10 days younger than my mother. I think I’ve heard of him but I couldn’t remember where. Upon researching I think it might have been America’s Got Talent

Most one-liners? Someone has never heard of Stephen Wright.
