I remember him appearing (probably in the early 80's) on the classic UK chat show Parkinson and doing an improvised song on a lyric suggested by an audience member ("Love is cheese made risible" for the record) long before that kind of thing was fashionable.
I never "A Chorus Line" whenever the film is on television. Great tunes and
fun.
May be he's up there jamming with Gershwin, Porter, Kern and the rest.

What a great musician and person. I was in the band for just one of his performances. I was most taken with what he did at the piano. He really knew how to take a broadway tune and interpret it beautifully. Beyond that he exhibited a great sense of humour and spirit on stage.

A fitting and lovely Tribute to Marvin Hamlisch's passing:
