edgar, I do recall that classic. Thanks, Texas.
Rimsky Korsakov also did the original Song of India which I have never been able to find in its entirety. Just the Johnny Mercer version.
Hey, Mooseman. That was hilarious by Cheech and Chong. Sister Mary Elephant? Those guys broke all the rules. Loved it, Kansas and thanks.
Anyone here remember Hogan's Heroes? Well, today is Bob Crane's birthday, and I was stunned to discover that the man was blugeoned to death in his apartment.
Robert Edward "Bob" Crane (July 13, 1928 " June 29, 1978) was an American disc jockey and Emmy Award-nominated actor, best known for his performance as Colonel Robert E. Hogan in the television sitcom Hogan's Heroes from 1965 to 1971, and for his violent and unsolved death.
Crane was born in Waterbury, Connecticut. He dropped out of high school in 1946 and became a drummer, performing with dance bands and a symphony orchestra. That same year he also enlisted in the Army Reserve, where he was assigned the job of a clerk and given an honorable discharge a few years later. In 1949, he married high school sweetheart Anne Terzian; they eventually had two children, Deborah Ann and Karen Leslie. Anne and Bob were briefly separated and living in different towns in the mid-1950s " after a few months they were reconciled and Anne soon afterward gave birth to their son, Robert David Crane. Bob later divorced Anne and married Patricia Olsen, an actress whose stage name was Sigrid Valdis. They had one son, Robert Scott Crane, and adopted a daughter, Ana Marie
Here's a memory of that production, y'all.
