I can't even begin to say anything about this clip. It's the single most mind-roasting thing I've found on YouTube since the amazing Dick Cavett-Cassavetes/Husbands show. SAVOR THIS.

No writer's strike in the Funhouse: last clips from Johnny's 10th
For media-vultures who devour present-day items while still mainlining nostalgia, a disruption in the entertainment biz means more time can be spent sifting through the joys of yesteryear. And so I finish off my trib to Johnny’s 10th anniversary (in 1972)with these two clips:
Don Rickles making his obligatory appearance and shakin’ things up (although being extremely reverent to Benny, as they all were). I recently saw the Rickles docu by John Landis, which will play on HBO at the end of the year. Interesting portrait of a man and a town (it’s all about Vegas), and it does have some primo clips of the pitbull of comedy, but here's a somewhat laidback bit of "panel":
Click here if the above doesn't work.
And a priceless appearance by Jerry, in which he is basically insulted by nearly everyone on the panel, except Joey Bishop. The sound is very uneven on this, but it’s definitely worth watching, for both those who love and those who hate the Jer:

Don Rickles sings and dances with other "nice guys"
Words really will spoil this one. Suffice it to say it just gets stranger and stranger, but the variety shows and primetime specials of yesteryear were founded on such moments. Lose your mind.

Since this clip truly was a revelation, I must salute the gent who put it up. Check out his fine selection of clippage, including boffo clip s of Tiny Tim, Tony Curtis, and a host of others.
