What a tremendous compliment to recognize Paul and the band at the 14:00 mark. An appreciation and respect of one artist to his fellow artists. Mel Tillis was a tremendous talent and one of the finest ambassadors the field of country music ever had.
Class personified.
I grew up in the 70's, listening to what my parents listened to, and they had great taste in Music....Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, CCR, Mel Tillis, Gary Stewart, Fleetwood Mac, Ronnie Milsap, The Eagles, Buck Owens, KC & The Sunshine Band, Al Green...all the great stuff_ One of my favorite songs was always 'Stomp them grapes' by Mel Tillis_ What a cool guy_ Genuine, funny_ I missed one of his last shows, in Arlington, TX, regretably, not long B4 he died_ Feels like I lost a family member when he died
Mel with Terry Bradshaw in Cannonball Run is the funniest part! 🤣
OMG, Mel should have been a regular guest! He's a natural with Letterman!
He will be missed. I always looked forward to hearing one of his new songs and watching him on TV. Rest in peace Lonnie Melvin Tillis and my the lord be with his family.
Loved him he was one of the greats!!
I always loved to see Mel Tillis on the talk shows of the 70's.......Especially with Dave Letterman !
Although Letterman never had a talk show in the ‘70s. :)
What a likeable, funny guy he was!
I LOVE Mel Tillis. He is so funny. Some people say the stutter is FAKE. HE'LL NO!!!
He'll no? He'll know? or Hell no?
Hell witchoo how bout dat! Wordsmith...
Will he know ?
Tilling is a riot. You gotta love him and may he rest peacefully. Aram J Dosdourian
Good Golly I loved this man since the age of 5, when first heard him sing and talk. He was on one of them Television programs....
Of course, Mel Tillis stutters here...may he rest in peace!
Thanks for this Don. Dave and Mel are great together.

Colter wall
I think george jones was wondering the same thing
Boot's
Mel was the best.
mel tillis will be sadly missed omg :(
Rest in Peace Mel!
one of the greats
Wonderful funny man. His ghostwriter Walter Wager was a successful thriller writer who penned Telefon (adapted into a Brosnan movie) and 58 Minutes which was the basis of Die Hard 2.
GOD Love Him!♥️
Wow, what a CLASS ACT Mel Tillis was! He passed in 2017, I was sad to hear about that. He wrote many songs, including RUBY, sung by other stars such as Kenny Rogers. In case some of you do not know Mel Tillis he was a country song writer and singer , and had a great voice for true country music. Listen to this story he told on the Ralph Emery show, its a riot, including Johnny Paycheck being with him. ruclips.net/video/UvfxysbzLOk/видео.html
My grandfather Ernest Adkins recruited him to be the lead singer in his band the Westerners during their time in Okinawa. Pretty cool knowing “Pop” played with Mel.
Yeah I just found out this guy is my cousin first cousin and no one told me but I do remember the fish fry in Panama City Florida when Pam was born
RIP Mel.
RIP, Mel. He was a tall one. Looks like he's significantly taller than Dave, who's a solid 6'2".
The only disability people laugh out loud at
@@claudettekay2965 They say to make it big in show business you need to stand out from the rest of the entertainers with something different. Mel was blessed with that disability.
Kind of like Mel Tillis the country singer who presented with a stutter when he spoke but never stuttered when he sang…
Wow Don. You really get these up quick after celeb passings. Nice work as always. Not to get greedy and it's a morbid subject considering he's still with us(barely). But any possibility we might be seeing some David Cassidy Late Night clips anytime soon? I'm fairly sure Charlie Manson or Malcolm Young were never on the show. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Neither Cassidy nor Young ever appeared on Late Night.
Huh. Surprising. At least in D. Cassidy's case. Well that answers that. Thanks! ;0
I'm related to him
Interesting. How so?
🤔🤨🤗🙂😁➡ ~ Now there's a ("Damn Good Pair to Draw to")❕ 👍👌👏💯😃🤣😆‼
So funny that Mei
yer cool don giller
He could have replaced Buck on heha wouldn't have bothered me none
Cannonball Run 2. The ridiculous movie that officially killed Burt Reynold's movie career.
And as I recall, we were all OK with that at the time.
