Rodney and the "Fifteen Feet and In" Playlist 10/07/04

Now that was a solid show....What did you think of Eddie Drennon & The BBS Orchestra?...Nice dig, huh?

Before I put up the list today. I want spill a sip on the floor for the passing of comedic legend, Rodney Dangerfield. Without a doubt, one of the last great lounge lizards has moved on, and no one worked a lounge or stage like him. The New York Times gave some great final words for him. Did you know that he started his comeback career in his 40s? Check it out.....

A major regret of mine is that I never visited Dangerfield's on 49th St. for a stiff drink and late night act. Truly, one of the last great comedians that used everyman deprecating humor has paassed. Here's another great article about the dying breed of comedians called "The Last Clown in His Class " from Michael Ramirez of the New York Times...My only hope is that Don Rickles holds on because I need the laughs.

I don't know about you, but whenever I hear Rodney's name, I think of Ben Davidson growling "Rodkneeee" in those Miller Lite commercials of the late 70s and early 80s....Rodney, much respect...this ML is for you...
