Paul Shaffer On New Album, Working With Bill Murray And Letterman's Wild Beard

... on May 3. Shaffer spoke with The Canadian Press by phone from New York to discuss hitting the road again. CP: I get the sense you're not one who can retire easily. PS: It just did get very depressing and I realized I need to keep playing the piano, you know. When I got this call from the legendary Seymour Stein, the great record man, record executive, who said, 'Would you like to get back in the music business and make a record?' I just jumped at the chance. And getting the old band back together from Letterman was fun because we really played so well together. We were like a guerilla war team, a special ops of rock-and-roll for all those years. And we did fall right back into it and had a very fun time with a lot of laughs making this record. CP: Which vocalist will come with you on tour. PS: The great Valerie Simpson is coming with me. This is like a dream come true for me. Not only did I idolize her as a writer when I was a kid, because with her late husband Nick (Ashford) she wrote "Ain't No Mountain High Enough", "Reach Out and Touch Somebody's Hand," "You're All I Need to Get By", oh my goodness, "Let's Go Get ...

Actor, Comedian Bill Murray Gives Hearty Shoutout To Merritt Island Teen Fighting Cancer

... took Paul up on her suggestion and never looked back! He has also learned quite a bit during this endeavor. One of the most challenging parts has been to make sure that the request gets to the right person. And, more often than not, that part is beyond Wilson’s control. His goal is to get as many clips of support for Julie that he can. The positive response rate is not great, but it’s not bad either. The negative responses come in various forms: some say they are too busy; some say if they do it for one, they will have to do it for all; some don’t respond; and some, but not many, just say no.

That’s exactly what happened recently when Wilson was covering March Madness for Space Coast Daily at the Amway Center in Orlando. Wilson was just coming out of the Xavier locker room after the Musketeers’ win over Maryland when he spotted Murray standing just a few feet away from him. Murray’s son, Luke, is one of the assistant coaches for Xavier, and Bill Murray was attending the game. When ...
