LOS ANGELES -- Hamilton Camp, half of the folk music duo Gibson and Camp whose 1961 album, "Live at the Gate of Horn," became one of the era's must-have records and who later found steady work as a character actor, has died. He was 70.

Mr. Camp, who helped found the Committee satirical comedy troupe in San Francisco in the mid-1960s, died Sunday after a fall outside his Hancock Park home. The cause of death was unclear, said his son, Hamilton Camp Jr.

I enjoyed him as a really funny actor before I was introduced to his lovely music. I was lucky enough to see Gibson and Camp in a reunion appearance.

Rest in peace, Mr. Camp.
