The Talk Show Murders par Steve Allen

I read this mainly b/c the author, Steve Allen, was a talk show host who presented Frank Zappa & Tim Buckley in the 1960s in a friendly supportive manner when no-one else was likely to have them on tv or to react to them as anything other than weirdos. As such, I'd say he was 'visionary'. I doubt that talk show hosts like him exist anymore - but then I stopped watching tv 38 yrs ago so I'm not the best person to judge. Anyway, it didn't make an impression on me.
