THE MEN FROM U.N.C.L.E. REUNITED
The Player’s Club in New York City hosted a black tie, $165 a plate tribute to film and TV star Robert Vaughn this past Sunday night. I seriously considered going however my partner’s total lack of interest and the hefty price prevented me. Too bad because the surprise guest was Vaughn’s U.N.C.L.E. co-star, David McCallum.

BRAVO!
As a huge Carol Lynley fan I couldn’t resist posting this wonderful tribute to her. Calling her a “movie legend” is a stretch even for me, but there is no denying Carol was incredibly beautiful. My only beef is that there is only one photo from the 1969-1970 period where Carol had the very short Vidal Sassoon hair style she sported in such movies as Once You Kiss a Stranger and Norwood so I posted a pic myself.
R.I.P.
Sadly, handsome blonde hunk Dennis Cole, one of the hottest actors for me from 60s/70s Hollywood, died recently in Florida. Most famous for his 3 year stint on the late 60s TV series Felony Squad, I remember him from the series Bracken’s World and his many TV guest appearances throughout the 70s.

SING. SING A SONG
Below is cobbled together tribute to sixties icon Tuesday Weld featuring a catchy song from singer Walter Egan released in 1980. Though the song knocks, Sandra Dee, Yvette Mimieux, Carol Lynley who don’t deserve it, and Connie Stevens who does, any song that has these sixties starlets in its lyrics is A-OK by me.
