The request thread was posted really late.  Wonder if she'll even consider any of my MOR requests.  :D

I've requested "Stoney End" in the past, to no avail. I was half-expecting a Robin Williams tribute set.

I thought perhaps we'd get a clip from early in his career, but 1971 is pushing it.

And given how often Perry Como has come up in recent discussion, an appearance would be most appropriate.

Pretty sure that in 1971 Robin Williams was still attending College of Marin. But his movie output from the early 80s on has been pretty consistent, so I'd assume we'll hear some clips in nearly any set from 82 or later.
Let's get right to it.

I'm gonna predict a 1993 set tomorrow with lots of Mrs Doubtfire

Willy Wonka "Pure Imagination" --> Santana, ripping off "Karate" for "Everybody's Everything".  A perfectly fine TOTHK.

Oh, but what a fab ripoff. One of my all-time fave songs.

J-5 "Never Can Say Goodbye". BOS1 just because.  More residuals for the Clifton Davis estate.
