Matt1 lost his VCR privileges when his mom walked in to this:

[matt1]

My late mom died at 82 years old of demencia back on Feburary 21, 2016!! 3 days later, Sam Merrill dies!!

Was disappointed they didn't do pieces on folks like Ton Eynon, Mark Westley, Jim Rush, Chet Rogoza, Gene Riley, Hugh Semple, Roberta Wray, and others. They built the "Big Nickel", not just Chuck Waters and Jim Peyton.

[matt1]

Smooth jazz instrumentalist Ronnie Laws "Always There" (from 1975 "Pressure Sensitive") which was played during the TV 5 All-Stars baseball segment. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nHiX9DdE3U

[matt1]

The late Burt Bacharach "The Old Fun City" (from late 1969 "Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid" movie soundtrack) which starts at the 1:41 mark till the 2:06 mark. That was played during the "TV 5 All-Stars" baseball commercials (1970 - 1986)!! I don't have the opening of the trumpet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpRSFkuHw_c

[matt1]

They also did NOT do Rick Lockridge, the late Allison Payne, Mike Hoffman (who replaced Chuck Waters or Jim Peyton), Jill Wellington, Susan Shaw, the late Jim Adams, or Zip Resppa either!!
