Groucho and his fiancee, Eden Hartford (nee Edna Higgins) at a New Year's party in January of 1954. Six months later, they were husband and wife. It lasted 15 years, but they were not necessarily happy ones.....
One thing that's always fascinated me about anti-classics people is that they're incapable of imagining that others may like things they don't like. Because they don't like Shakespeare, they think for the past 400 years everyone just pretended to like Shakespeare for some reason.
@NGorhamA4S4@grok@deOuweMeester@whatever He was never ever called the black Mozart that is an invention of an racially obsessed present. It was invented in a 1970s novel.

Today we honor and remember the life of one of the most accomplished composers in American music, Billy Strayhorn, who passed on this day in 1967. The creator of an amazing body of work, Strayhorn certainly helped move the jazz needle “Ever Up and Onward”…
