RIP Linda Lavin.

Linda Lavin passed away yesterday. She was 87 years old. Best known for the leading role in TV’s “Alice”, she was a multi-faceted performer, acting, singing, and dancing in television shows, movies, and both on and off Broadway.

Here’s my favorite version of the at least 13 different incarnations of Linda singing the opening theme song to “Alice”. This particular version is from season two.

As a road geek, I can identify the exact spot Alice and Tommy drive under the “Phoenix” sign, it was actually filmed on Interstate 19 northbound here in Tucson.
