Talk show host Les Crane died Sunday. He was 74.

Crane's short lived talk show, which sought to expose mainstream America to the radical thinkers of the day (his guests included Bob Dylan, Martin Luther King Jr., and the Rolling Stones), changed the look of late night talk shows by having the audience surround the set and offer opinions.

Crane later had a top 10 hit with "Desiderata" (memorably spoofed by National Lampoon as "You Are a Fluke of the Universe").

Grammy award winning singer Jo Stafford, who starred in radio and television, and who sold over 25,000,000 records (and had nearly a dozen top 10 hits), died Wednesday. She was 90.

Stafford was nicknamed "GI Jo" because her songs were popular with troops during World War II and the Korean War.
