Legend has it that Harvard said, Tom, Tom, Tom... either you're a Harvard professor, or you're a comic with a keyboard. Choose one. Sadly for us, he chose Harvard.
Back in '66 I lived a short walk from Harvard Square, and saw him a few times in the Coop and the Yard of Ale, where I could get a beer, even though I was only 19, because I knew one of the bartenders.
Always loved The Vatican Rag.
