I remember Gibson from Laugh - In, of course, but his role in " Nashville " is what I remember most.
His portrayal of a " legendary " country singer with his ruthless fingers in nearly everyone's pies is amazing, and totally unexpected if one goes by his work on Laugh - In, and his other TV work.

Henry came up in a conversation not long ago when some mentioned he had died years back. I wasn't sure and meant to look it up but didn't. Now I know.
So long Henry.

After Laugh In I remember him as head of the Illinois Nazi Party in the Blues Brothers....funny scene in a great movie.

From a poet on Laugh-In..a legend in Nashville..a nazi in the Blues Brothers movie...and a recurring judge on Boston Legal. Henry Gibson was supurb.
