The original musical score for Stan and Ollie's happy dance number in Way out West was deemed too racy, so it was replaced by something more palatable for then contemporary tastes - Michael Jackson shamelessly passed the original of as his own work, to the point of working for years in matching his vocal style to what was recorded in 1937 before releasing his own take - but here's the original - with a nod to Michael because he recognised the genius of Billie Jean:

Peter Schikele has died, aged 85. He's probably best known for his musical parodies, particularly the oeuvre of PDQ Bach (1807-1742?).

Forgot to add Mike Post. Quantum Leap holds a special place in my heart because of a friend who was on the series who has since passed. Fun fact: the vintage photos flashed in the opening credits, the last one is of a portrait of a Marine. That is producer Don Bellisario when he was in the service.
