A man of many talents with a very recognizable voice has passed away…..

LOS ANGELES (AP) – The voice of “I’m Just A Bill” and “Conjunction Junction” from “Schoolhouse Rock” has died.   Jazz musician Jack Sheldon died Friday of natural causes at the age of 88, according to his longtime manager and partner, Dianne Jimenez.

Sheldon played trumpet on the song “The Shadow of Your Smile” from the film “The Sandpiper.”   It won the song of the year Grammy and best original song Oscar in 1966.

Sheldon was the wiseguy sidekick on Merv Griffin’s show and appeared as the bandleader in the Bette Midler film “For The
Boys.”  

He parodied his performance of “I’m Just A Bill” for a “Simpsons” episode in 1996 as “An Amendment to Be,” and he reprised his “Conjunction Junction” role for “Family Guy.”
