Big loss for the music world. I will never forget the songs from M*A*S*H -— especially “Suicide Is Painless”.... RIP.
Suicide Is Painless

The music was Mandel’s, the lyrics for that were director Robert Altman’s son - he wanted for his boy to get a cut of the song royalties.
"Oh...Tokyo...They got some sake and sashimi and some clean sheets, Oh, Kimono...Kimono...Kimono..."
