#34: Mel Tormé (Now)
Mel Tormé continued performing into the 1990s, recording albums, touring, and making television appearances. His late-career popularity was boosted in part by his Night Court cameos, which introduced him to a younger generation of fans who might not have known his jazz classics.

Tormé passed away in 1999 at the age of 73, leaving behind a rich musical legacy that spanned six decades. Fun fact: Anderson’s devotion to Tormé was so authentic that when the singer died, Anderson gave heartfelt tributes, reminding fans how intertwined the show and singer had become.
