His life is worth living because of the small moments, the simple act of LIVING, not because his presence makes the world magically better. Simply being alive, adding some small touch of himself, is all that's needed. Remember: you're the only you in the world, you're irreplacable.

The person who provided the actual music for Joey & Gabe was Uan Rasey, one of the many legendary Hollywood studio musicians of that time. You may also have heard him in Chinatown, Rocky, & The Munsters. He lived to be 91 and passed in 2011. My private teacher look lessons from him for 30 years and described him as the most positive human being to ever live.

This, while not the most thematically-packed Twilight Zone episode ever made, I will say that this is definitely a favorite of mine! While it's solid, overall, what I think hits me the hardest is the epiphany Klugman has about his life, in that he really had some wonderful times, even if they're a bit distant, now. It's just something about the simplicity of his delivery that I like, in how it doesn't ignore the negative parts, but just sort of resolves to take the good with the bad. That and "Gabriel" is a standout, amongst the whole series, as relatively little we saw of him. Great episode!
