Carpenters "Vinyl Collection" spotted on Jimmy Fallon CBS Sunday Morning interview

He obviously knows a LOT of great music:

Awesome!

 

[AM Matt]

I wonder if Fallon's mom loved The Carpenters music??

 

[Jack A.]

That’s really interesting! Jimmy was in “More Cowbell” on SNL, and he’s done stuff with Paul McCartney several times, so he’s probably familiar with a lot of older music.

In addition to the Carpenters set,


He also has Wes Montgomery's DOWN HERE ON THE GROUND:

I wouldn’t be surprised if he got them as gifts from Universal Music, since they own the network he’s on. Shopping spree in the warehouse! What fun that would be.

Although he is no Jay Leno, Fallon has always had a certain amount of appeal - and I'm pretty sure, just like Johnny Carson, he would have had K & R on his show if their time-frames had aligned - I wonder when he last listened to their records...

The big problem for him is when he gets "political" and then he usually goes crashing right off the rails (like all of the other major network late-night hosts) - that's why they're getting their collective asses kicked in the ratings by Fox News' Greg Gutfeld...

Fallon is this generation’s Leno. I like him a lot!
