Not as old as the Smothers Brothers...I saw them in Laughlin last year..they still think they’re cutting edge..very sad. However, the first part of the show was a video of the old days which really brought back memories.

Tom's late wife Linda was a close friend of mine. Tragically, she was killed crossing a street in Los Angeles. That was about 23 years ago.

I got paid %50 for a picture of him once; it was back in 1969 or 70 and I was at Laguna Seca covering a Trans-Am race and taking a shot of Mark Donahue and the awards person, unnoticed by me was Dick Smothers in the background and when the magazine came out they had cropped out everything but a cameo of Smothers and blew it up on the page next to the article and supplied their caption — sneaky, huh?

I went back to my contact sheet and there he was, as’little’ as life off in the corner.
