David Sanborn, aged 78. He played multiple instruments but was best known as an alto saxophonist. R.I.P.

That’s a bummer, he was one of my favorite sax players back in the 70s. Hell, I still hear Butterfat all the time as bumper music, in grocery stores, coffee shops, elevators…

Saw him at the Blue Note in Fresno. Hiroshima opened for him. It was a top 5 concert event for me.

Man he was a fixture in the 70s and 80s.

Great as the boss in 9 to 5.

I still giggle at the thought of him setting up items on his desk to fall off so he could sneak a peak at Dolly Parton’s cleavage.

He was also in Boardwalk Empire iirc.

RIP, Jack Flack.

I will throw down with anyone who argues that Jerry Caesar in Dragnet was not his finest role ever.

I will not abide this Cloak and Dagger deletion.

Found out Dabney Coleman was born in Austin and attended UT (also went to VMI; not sure where he graduated).

Filmed in San Antonio. I’ll allow it.

I remember reading something about him being from Texas, but didn’t know about UT. #hookem

He was a goddamn good-looking man!

Watched a clip of him on Letterman from the early ‘80s, right before War Games was released and Dave mentioned he was from Texas.
I had forgotten how funny Dabney Coleman was, because he had Dave laughing.

I will abide Cloak and Dagger, 9 to 5, and War Games.

Godspeed, Dabney.
