He's joined the other nuts in outer space. Wish I could find a clip of Mean Gene w/ Andy Kaufman.

Mean Gene also had the greatest fast food logo ever:

Bob Einstein, known to my generation as Super Dave Osborne, and Funkhauser on Curb Your Enthusiasm, dead at 76.

 

 

 

I didn't realize he was Super Dave. I watched it as a kid and totally forgot about it. Loved him as Funkhouser in CYE.

Sad news, I used to love the Super Dave stuff. His episodes he features in of Comedians In Cars.... are great too. All around naturally funny dude.

Daryl Dragon, of The Captain & Tennille, dead at 76. 76 seems to be the magic number these days.

The movie this is for (Louis Malle's "Elevator to the Gallows") is great, btw. (edit:  it may actually be for the "Legrand Jazz" album but that's all a bit of a time blur)

[iococoi]

its from the legrand jazz sessions

[Taupe Beats]

Legrand also worked with Davis on Elevator to the Gallows (typically isn't credited, but he was involved). So yeah, pedantic but could be from either.

[caze]

this album he did with Stan Getz was also very good:
