The Mighty REVEEN

Way back at the time of this site's inception, I posted footage of hypnotist/illusionist Reveen performing on an episode of The Merv Griffin Show originating from Las Vegas (and a Canadian commercial for a Reveen performance in Newfoundland). Well, Stupid Comics, a swell site, has just posted something that I find amazing and endlessly amusing - I hope you will too. It's a Reveen comic book from the mid-sixties! It's simply too much. Check it out here.

The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson with guest host Garry Shandling (1986)

Man, it's almost impossible to tell the difference between this and an episode of The Larry Sanders Show.

The Tomorrow Show with Tom Snyder with guest Maynard Ferguson (1982)

Few trumpet players could hit octaves as high as Canadian born Maynard Ferguson. He was quite a well respected jazz musician in the fifties and sixties before "going commercial" with his monster hits - discofied interpreations of the Rocky theme and Macarthur Park.

The Tomorrow Show with Tom Snyder (1979)

Perhaps the only good thing about having a legendary showbiz or media figure pass away in this day and age is the sudden influx of clips that flood the internet, hitherto unseen since their original broadcast. I can't make heads or tails of this interview but it's still swell.
