It's hard to believe there was only one Steve Allen! This same person created The Tonight Show, wrote more than 50 books, composed more than 8,500 songs, recorded some 40 record albums, starred on Broadway and in motion pictures, composed Broadway, television, and film scores, starred in his own television series, and created, wrote, and hosted the Emmy Award-winning PBS series Meeting of Minds. In Mark it and Strike It, Steve focuses on himself, talking about his family, his upbringing, his views, the creative process, and the business of being funny. And because Steve always brought something extra special to his work, he brightened this recording with some of his inimitable ad-libbing on the piano.
