Any of the senior citizens remember Dragnet tv show? It turns out that
Jack Web was an audiophile. As a side note, Jack actually started out as a comedian.
Johnny Carson will mention the audiophile before the skit.

Of course, I remember Jack...just the facts ma'am... Webb. Harry Morgan did a great job as well. That's an interesting story about Webb being an audiophile and the Jimmy Cagney story was funny.

Thanks also Steve for posting that skit with Johnny Carson and Jack Webb. It's been years since I have seen it. Classic Carson material. I watched Jay Leno a fair amount after Carson left. But when Leno left, I pretty much stopped watching those late night shows.
