Subject: David McCallum, The Man From U.N.C.L.E., Gone at 90

Legendary TV star David McCallum, who starred in fare such as NCIS and the 60s hit The Man From U.N.C.L.E., has died at the age of 90. :\'(

The James Bond-influenced “The Man From U.N.C.L.E.,” in which Robert Vaughn’s Napoleon Solo and David McCallum’s Illya Kuryakin battled the evil forces of T.H.R.U.S.H. around the globe (thanks to the glories of stock footage), was a pop-culture phenomenon in the mid-1960s, even as the show’s tone wavered from fairly serious to cartoonish and back again over its four seasons. 8)
McCallum was twice married, the first time to the lovely actress Jill Ireland. :-*

I am saddened by his passing, I watched “The Man From U.N.C.L.E.” on it's original broadcasting, and followed his career. He notably appeared in "The Great Escape" (1963).

In the 1960s, McCallum recorded four albums for Capitol Records with music producer David Axelrod: Music...A Part of Me (Capitol ST 2432, 1966), Music...A Bit More of Me (Capitol ST 2498, 1966), Music...It's Happening Now! (Capitol ST 2651, 1967), and McCallum (Capitol ST 2748, 1968). The best known of his pieces today is "The Edge", which was sampled by Dr. Dre as the intro and riff to the track "The Next Episode". McCallum's version of "The Edge" appears on the soundtracks to the 2008 video game Grand Theft Auto IV and the 2017 film Baby Driver.
