Mylon and Broken Heart were probably the start of my interest in heavier music.  I remember the intro to "I Will Rejoice" played in headphones, at the time, sounded so heavy but melodic.  I'm glad I got to see them live.  I need to break out those cassettes....

David McCallum was in one of my All-Time-Fav movies The Great Escape.  He was in tons of stuff.     Great times watching that movie with my dad.

No. Not really. I can't back that up.

RIP Suzanne.

Are they all gone now (the cast of Three’s Company)? Or is Joyce Dewitt and the other two Chrissy replacements still around? And the guy that played Larry.

I know Joyce Dewitt and Richard Kline (Larry) are still alive. Don't know about the others.

Jenilee Harrison (who played Cindy Snow, a cousin of Chrissy) and Priscilla Barnes (who played Teri Alden) are both still alive.
