Wasn't it Bobby Hackett, famous for not being able to say anything bad
about anyone, who said upon meeting Rossano Mussolini, "Too bad about
your Dad!"?


Dear Don:

I think it was Chet Baker that said it. From the All About Jazz website:

Cheers,
Steve

"Oh man, I'm sorry about your dad."

~Chet Baker, upon meeting Romano Mussolini, son of the late Italian  
Dictator, Benito Mussolini.~

There are some other wonderful quotes on the site:
