Just felt the need to post this somewhere (2 days late unfortunately)...I grew up on 'Schoolhouse Rock' and we have lost a giant. Since these Saturday morning staples were a part of all of our lives in the height of pinball - go youtube 'Conjunction Junction' or 'I'm Just a Bill' and take a minute to remember.

Bob was the songwriter of MANY of the 'Schoolhouse Rock' tunes.

He was up there in age.....great songwriter and musician . His compositions for Schoolhouse rock was a hell of a run.

Figure 8, My Hero Zero, Shot Heard Around the World, Unpack your Adjectives, and many more. Great work. I still listen to the tunes.

Lolly's Lolly's Lolly's, get your adverbs here.
Those were great.
Some awful 70's things were pretty good.
