Tom Smothers, half of the Smothers Brothers and the co-host of one of the most socially conscious and groundbreaking television shows in the history of the medium, has died at 86.

The National Comedy Center, on behalf of his family, said in a statement Wednesday that Smothers died Tuesday at home in Santa Rosa, California, following a cancer battle.

One of my all time favorites. I have great memories of watching their show as a kid - back in the day when you actually made plans to watch a show as a family because if you missed it, it was gone. I think they were both amazing musicians and even better people.

(Was I the only one who first read this quickly and assumed Yo Yo Ma had died?)
