My guess is that Jack is referring to Bergonzi violins. Which he pronounces as "Brugonza". From THE DICK CAVETT SHOW. February 21, 1973.

  • Jack's Stradivarius was made in 1729. It was renamed the "Benny". Jack bequeathed it to the Los Angeles Philharmonic, where to the best of my knowledge, it's currently being used by Martin Chalifour.

  • Timeless schtick....

  • HaHa!  I used to listen to Jack every Sunday

    night. More than half a century ago.

    I read he bought his Sradivarius in the 50s

    for $16,000. Probably worth a couple

    million today.

    Tx 4 the post . Wonderful to see two great

    wits together.
