...DIED. BOB DENVER, 70, perennially goofy sitcom star, most famously of the critically panned but ceaselessly popular Gilligan's Island, which aired from 1964 to 1967 and is still in reruns; of cancer; in Winston-Salem, N.C. He won over teenagers in the late 1950s as the goateed, bongo-playing beatnik Maynard G.

They started out as Ronnie Hawkins & the Hawks, morphed into Bob Dylan's swaggering backup group and then struck out on their own, which makes the Band one of the few outfits actually constrained by mere five-disc treatment.
