   	Oh, now, that is interesting news and trivia.  I think that you   
   are right; I can't think of another general type musician who might have   
   been on more than Tony Bennett.  Maybe John Pizzarelli?   
      
   	Meanwhile, tied for last-place with a striking zero performances   
   on Late Night are The Beatles, the Bonzo Dog Doo-dah Band, and the Cherry   
   Sisters (deceased).
