I recently purchased a video of the Best of the Dean Martin Roasts. One of the
roasts featured is Michael Landon's and this guy whom I've never seen before
was introduced as (I think) John Whitestone. He set up a joke where he was a
director casting a Western which he called "Wagon Load" with Bogart, Gary
Cooper, and Mitchum and Michael Landon would play an Indian Chief. He then
proceeded to enact a scene, hilariously imitating all the actors. His
impersonations of Cooper and Bogart, especially, were so uncanny that his face
literally seemed to change--he looked just like them when mimicing them. It was
one of the funniest bits I've ever seen.
Anyway..I've never seen this guy before but my mother claims she used to see
him on Ed Sullivan's show sometimes. Does anyone know who I'm talking about or
anything about him?

WAAAAAAAAAY too late for this advice, you want to search for Guy Marks. Wikipedia has the details.

Yup, this Guy is correct. Not only a comedian and actor, but a Guy with a big hit record called "Loving You Has Made Me Bananas." He went on-topic here probably 30 years ago.
