From "The Dream World of Doris Wilson!" in Love Romances #103, January 1963. Stan Lee (?) plot, Larry Lieber (?) script, Jack Kirby pencils, Al Hartley inks, Stan Goldberg (?) colors, Artie Simek letters.

Class. Check out that inner sleeve design. Love those old printed inner sleeves. I don't ever use them as actual record sleeves, but I do keep them all. Pretty sure I'm not alone.

Jackie Mason (born Yacov Moshe Maza; June 9, 1928 – July 24, 2021) was an American stand-up comedian and film and television actor. He is ranked No. 63 on Comedy Central's 100 greatest stand-up comedians of all-time.[2]

His 1986 one-man show The World According to Me won a Special Tony Award, an Outer Critics Circle Award, an Ace Award, an Emmy Award, and a Grammy nomination. Later, his 1988 special Jackie Mason on Broadway won another Emmy Award (for outstanding writing) and another Ace Award, and his 1991 voice-over of Rabbi Hyman Krustofski in The Simpsons episode "Like Father, Like Clown" won Mason a third Emmy Award. He wrote and performed six one-man shows on Broadway.[1]

Known for his delivery and voice, as well as his use of innuendo and pun, Mason's often culturally grounded humor was described as irreverent and sometimes politically incorrect.[3][4] A critic for Time wrote that he spoke to audiences: "with the Yiddish locutions of an immigrant who just completed a course in English. By mail." 

Mason made several appearances as a guest on The Ed Sullivan Show during the 1960s.[4] He claimed to have been on the first episode to feature the American television debut of the Beatles, although research does not bear this fact out.[23] Mason revealed during his appearance on the BBC show Desert Island Discs that at the time he did not think much of the group, referring to them as "four kids in search of a voice who needed haircuts". In 1962 he came out with his initial LP record, a best-seller entitled I'm the Greatest Comedian in the World, Only Nobody Knows It Yet, followed by I Want to Leave You with the Words of a Great Comedian.[9][24]

"Middle finger" incident (1964)[edit]

On October 18, 1964, in an appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show, Mason allegedly gave host Ed Sullivan the finger on air. Footage of the incident shows Mason in the middle of doing his stand-up comedy act and then looking toward Sullivan, who had placed himself directly behind the camera, commenting that Sullivan was signaling him.[5][10] Sullivan was reportedly letting Mason know (by holding up two fingers) that he had only two minutes left, and to cut his act short, as the program was about to cut away due to having been partly pre-empted by an impromptu speech by President Lyndon B. Johnson that the show carried.[5][7]

Mason began working his own fingers into his act to make fun of the situation, and pointed toward Sullivan with an index finger, a thumb, but not (as Sullivan mistakenly believed) his middle finger.[5] Sullivan was infuriated by this, and banned Mason from future appearances on the show, canceling Mason's $45,000 ($375,000 in current dollar terms), six-appearance contract.[5][10] Mason denied knowingly giving Sullivan the middle finger; he later said that he had not heard of the middle finger gesture at that time.[7] To clear his name, Mason filed a libel suit on the grounds that Sullivan had defamed him at the New York Supreme Court. That court dismissed most of Mason's complaint. Both Mason and Sullivan appealed to the New York Supreme Court Appellate Division (which reinstated three additional causes of action against Sullivan) in June 1966.[3][25][26][27] He was nevertheless banned from the show for a period of time. Sullivan asserted that Mason was unpredictable and could not be trusted. Because of Sullivan's influence, he was branded as unreliable, volatile, and obscene, and he failed to get substantial TV work for the next two decades.[3][5][7][8] There was no ruling on the merits, merely a determination that Mason's suit could proceed and that he would be given an opportunity to prove his claim.

Mason was given a single comeback appearance on Sullivan's TV program two years later, and Sullivan publicly apologized to him, but the damage was done.[5] At that time, Mason opened his monologue by saying, "It is a great thrill ... and a fantastic opportunity to see me in person again."[26] Mason later appeared on the show five times: April 23, 1967; February 25, 1968; November 24, 1968; July 22, 1969; and August 31, 1969.[28] Mason later said: "It took 20 years to overcome what happened in one minute"

Al Jazzbo Collins ‎– A Lovely Bunch Of Al Jazzbo Collins And The Bandidos (1967)

The exact etymology of the word “Jazzbo” isn’t 100% clear, but it’s been attributed to legendary Bay area DJ Al Collins, nicknamed “Jazzbo” by others for his love of jazz music.  During the entire beat poet period, Jazzbo Collins became the beat voice of 50s West Coast late night radio, often doing skits with jazz music playing in the background. It’s through his late night radio shows that many beats heard their jazz, It’s likely from there that the term “Jazzbo” began to be used by the beats, to describe a “cat” that loved jazz. That whole stereotype of the white guy with the beret and jazz pinch, seen in cartoons of the time and since?  Jazzbo Collins.  If you can transport yourself to the place and time while reading Kerouac, Ginsberg etc..., Jazzbo Collins would likely be playing on midnight radio, somewhere in 50s San Francisco.

Weekend Wind Down: Ornette Coleman - Lonely Woman

I'm a closet jazzbo. It's a not-so-secret shame. I was reminded of that when I saw that Ornette Coleman passed away. Some of my unhealthy obsession with jazz seems embarrassing in retrospect. My most confounding nerdy pleasure was the old school math rock feel of it, with the complex musical theory and organized chaos behind it. It's obvious ancestor was free jazz, which Ornette Coleman basically invented. Beyond the "time no changes" ideals of Miles Davis' Second Quintet, Ornette believed that improvisation was still fake, not extreme enough. Having a prescribed set of changes to him was just as bad as writing out his solos ahead of time. He opted for a chaos more pure. And the fact that he performed with a man, Don Cherry, who made the pocket trumpet (yes, the pocket trumpet is a real thing and it's sort of awesome) an actual fiery blaster of madness, helped him out. Ornette Coleman did a lot in his career, a lot that helped make jam bands possible (dubious) and John Coltrane's later career possible (wonderful until dubious). I often wonder if people like Ornette and their disregard for keys, chords, and all the usual musical trimming also helped make things like hip hop and EDM possible. Almost that a non-musician could walk in there and just purely express themselves over rhythm at a primal level. I hear that in this song. "Lonely Woman" starts with a chilling bassline, then a horny wail that could be anything from sorrow to a rallying cry. It's stuck with me every time I've heard of it. It's not exactly relaxing, but it's not disturbing either. It is, as the small handful of jazz tracks that have stuck with me over the almost thousands I have in my library, cathartic on a purely emotional level. The rattling drums and minimal touches of piano only added to the blooming sonic palette. Are Ornette's other songs as good? Probably not. But now that he's left us, he deserves to be remembered. And this track is to my mind the best to remember him by.
