My all-timefavorite impressionist has passed away. In the late 60s/early 70s, he skewered politicians on both sides.

Thanks for sharing the Youtube clip!! He was one of my fav's back in the late 60's and early 70's. We use to laugh ourselves sick over some of his Nixon routines. Great memories while growing up.

RIP, David. Thanks for the laughs.

RIP.

I used to enjoy his appearances on TV, usually on variety shows (I think he was on the Flip Wilson Show a number of times, and maybe on the Smothers Brothers too). One of the first albums I ever bought was his "Radio Free Nixon," when I was about 12.
