Years, ago, I contacted MF's people and started my own meager rally to get MF on the show. I can't recall the woman I spoke with in Ojai, however she seemed kind of goofy, not understanding what I was wanting to do------she actually thought I was with NBC at first. Anyway, with no internet, needless to say, I was not very successful. I believe I requested others (via the MF newsletter) to do the same, but I don't know what the response was, if any.

For what it's worth...........a little over a year ago, I spent some time talking with Arturo Sandoval's soundman who was formerly with MF. He made mention that MF tried to get on the show for years. I can't recall exactly what he said, but it was something to the effect that as long as Doc was on the show,  MF would not be appearing (as if someone assumed a rivalry between the two). I don't really recall much else from this part of the conversation because I was focused on talking with Arturo as well.  Oh well........
