    Always thought they never really got the full credit they truly deserve

    Observations: 1) David Sanborn was killing the alto sax ad libs in the background; 2) Valerie Simpson was an underappreciated R&B beauty, 3) Nikolas Ashford(Respect and RIP) was one of the most underrated R&B first tenors of that era, 4) 'Count Your Blessings' was a great song.

    I know it's a weird request, but... Any change you have Letterman's 93 CBS press conference? Not a show per se, but Letterman made it pretty funny.
