4. Oh, no.
Here's the MSNBC link:

I have a wonderful album by him, "At Last," released on the Capitol label. Dianne Reeves, who made such a dynamite appearance in "Good Night, and Good Luck" this past year, does a duet or two with him on that album. There are also some wonderful covers of Billy Vera songs.

God rest his soul.
