Oh no! She had SUCH a beautiful voice and way about her. I had one of her albums on vinyl in the sixties and we just played the heck out of it.

Mitch Mitchell, the last surviving member of "The Jimi Hendrix Experience" was found dead today. He was 61. Mitch was know for the unique jazz-influenced, circular drumming style he used as an integral part of the Experience sound. I am just sick that the last of them is gone. "Are You Experienced" is probably my favorite album of all time, even though I'm not really a rock fan. Mitch Mitchell Dead

WOW! I just saw Mitch Mitchell play a few weekends ago at the fabulous Chicago Theatre(October 26th - it was a bday present from DH) He is/was touring with "The Jimi Hendrix Experience" - a bunch of blues/rock guys touring together for about 15 or so shows around the country. He played on several of the songs. It was really cute seeing this little, aged, guy up there banging away with the likes of Kenny Wayne Shephard, Jonny Lang, Buddy Guy and others... Off to read the accompannying article...

Gospel and Folk Legend Odetta dies I didn't know who she was until a few months ago--a very powerful woman who had a prominent role in the civil rights movement.

Wow, Odetta was quite a force of nature and, LOL, very stern with the audience. I saw her in concert with some other singers, long long ago.

That's a weird pic of Beverly. Not at all the way I remember her from My 3 Sons.

I tried but couldn't find any shots of her in her role on MTS. However, both of the photos I've posted look very much as I remember her. I never saw her on MTS.

I remember Beverly from My Three Sons. She married the dad. I liked the show better when he was a bachelor. I think she had a daughter, Dodi, in the show.

I thought Dodi was the dumbest name ever! That was my favorite show when I was a kid. I remember her from that. I also admit I liked it better when he was single. Also remember they changed uncles? There was Uncle Charlie and then there was another one. They also adopted "Ernie" so they could still have 3 sons when the oldest left the show. I did like Beverly though despite the changes.

Thanks a lot, Twiggy! I've heard many prominent actors say they owe much of their success to her teaching them the art of acting.
