Is There a Doctor in the House?

So, with all the Johnny Carson retrospectives over the last two days (and they were EVERYWHERE Monday night) where is Doc Severinsen? Jay Leno had Ed McMahon on his show last night and Doc's name never even came up. And everyone who even met Johnny was being interviewed somewhere. So where's Doc?

Like I said, the TV memorials to Carson were unavoidable last night. Leno actually even did a good job. Too bad his regular show can't be that good. In fact, last night may have been the first time I watched Leno all the way through.

I was stuck by how really old everyone from the Carson era looks now. It was kind of sad to see the old clips showing how vital these people were back in the day. It just doesn't seem that long ago.
