Also true of the Academy Awards until rock music in the mid-to late 1950s. In any given year, the music may include "Hamilton" "American Idiot" or revivals of Rodgers & Hammerstein musicals, even Styne and Sondheim's "Gypsy."

Yes. Elizabeth Taylor was married to Eddie Fisher and survived a very serious pneumonia scare.

. I have been watching the Oscars since the late 1950s. They have always been unfocused. At least Bob Hope and Johnny Carson hosted for so long, they almost became allies with the folks watching at home. And there were dramatic surprises: Liz Taylor's Best Actress Oscar for Butterfield 8, for example.

I agree. But, Eddie Fisher recorded an album of Oscar winner songs from the beginning to the late 1950s. With a few exceptions, the songs were wonderful (White Christmas, Somewhere Over The Rainbow). And even Eddie Fisher stopped being wonderful in a few years.

The problem is with Putin and the oligarchs, not necessarily with the people who live in Russia. I often disagree with Corporate Shill -- most of the time actually. But, "Well aren't we a sensitive little thing" is unfair. I agree with Shill on Dianne Feinstein not running for re-election and several other issues.

I know. I listened to Pearl Jam in the 1990s as well. Just was not sure Eddie Vedder was universally known then.

Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam is one the best known rock performers for well over a decade. I doubt Ms. Garner said "Eddie Butter."

Jack Benny continued working until the end of his life. He did classical music concerts with local orchestras. I saw him at Wolf Trap in Virginia a few months before Mr.. Benny passed. away. There were not many hotels then near Wolf Trap. He stayed at the local hotel. I remember seeing Jack talk to his manager in the hotel lobby. I was there to see Ella Fitzgerald; Jack Benny was a nice bonus.
