That song was on her 1st album, but it never became popular until Clint Eastwood used in the 1st movie he directed. I was a Clint fan, even back then, so I seen the movie when it came out. I was a sophmore in high school.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Play_Misty_for_Me

That she did. This one was popular when I was in jr. high. Can remember hearing it on the transistor radio I got for Christmas.

      Since I'm from Indiana, originally,  I liked him in "Hoosiers". He had a lot of excellent roles, though.
I used to be cute and adorable. Then, I had my first birthday. Been downhill ever since.

I read that too.  "No foul play suspected"   Sad deal.

Yeah, they're kind of tight lipped about it so far. :scratch: With the dog dead too................we were wondering if it might've been from carbon monoxide.  :confused:

What a great actor.  He was fun to hate too.  That is why he was so good at everything he did.  RIP Gene.

Sad to hear of his passing. Enjoyed many of the roles he played, especially as Little Bill in Unforgiven, for which he won a supporting actor Oscar. I was wondering about the carbon monoxide thing too with the way it appears so far. Looked at the 3 day temperature log for Santa Fe. It's probable that they needed to use some supplemental heat with lows in the low 30's recently. Until something is official, that's only speculation. May they all rest in peace.

I didn’t read that piece, but I heard that they had apparently been dead for a while, maybe a couple weeks, and the dog was locked in its crate.
