Obit: Bobby Rosengarden, 82, ‘Dick Cavett Show’ Bandleader

Bobby Rosengarden, a jazz drummer who worked with musicians from Igor Stravinsky to Jimi Hendrix but became best known for making musical wisecracks as the bandleader on “The Dick Cavett Show,” died Tuesday in Sarasota, Fla. He was 82.

He played on “The Steve Allen Show,” “The Ernie Kovacs Show,” “Sing Along With Mitch” and in the early years of Johnny Carson’s version of “The Tonight Show.”

He also was the musical leader of the band during the NYC portions of the Jerry Lewis Telethon. I would remember whomever the hosts were--like Tony Orlando, call for a Rosengarden. He would then do a drumroll to lead in to the new amoung on the tote board.
