...Metro Life magazine that he can neither holler nor hoof, and suggested that the show's producers should "take out an ad on the front page of each arts section in town and have it say, 'Please don't think that you're paying to see Richard Dreyfuss sing and dance because you'll only be pissed off.'" Worse, he went on to accuse writer and co - producer Mel Brooks of bullying. "Tell Mel Brooks this," Dreyfuss instructed. "'Please don't yell at Richard ?

...past. “Counting Down the Hours” enters in with brushed guitar and quiet vocals before swing-time guitars and a chiming synth line make Leo show off his range and force. His pedigree in punk shines through when he is forced to sing over loud guitar parts, and his vocals are easily the strength of the album. “Little Dawn” is a nearly six-minute treat, with a lengthy fadeout of whirling guitars and limping bass over Leo singing “it’s alright” over and over...
