“My Favorite Martian” Starring Ray Walston (and Bill Bixby) “The Martian Song” b/w “When I Was a Boy On Mars. A Little Golden Record This was one of my favorite TV shows as a kid (along with “My Three Sons,” “Mr. Ed,” “Flipper,” “Gentle Ben,” etc, etc.) I liked when the attenae would go up from his head when he was going to use his extra-terrestrial powers. Nearly twenty years after “My Favorite Martian,” (1963-1966 on CBS, Sunday nights after “Lassie”), Ray reached a new generation of fans as the memorable Mr. Hand in “Fast Times at Ridgemont High”.

The Theme from “The Devil’s Hand” Original Soundtrack on Chess Records. (1962)
A beside-the-point Batman connection: Neil Hamilton (the ironic police commissioner in the BATMAN TV show) is highly amusing here as Mr. Lamont, a bloodthirsty devil figure extraordinaire. He runs a creepy doll shop during the day, but holds satanic blood rituals in the back room at night!

Idrees & Jamila Sulieman “The Camel” Columbia Records (Scandinavia) 1964
Idrees Sulieman was an early bebop pioneer on trumpet. He was born Leonard Graham, and took up trumpet when his father could not afford to buy him a saxophone (he later played alto saxophone after moving to Europe).
He began his professional career with the Carolina Cotton Pickers in 1939. He changed his name to Idrees Dawud ibn Sulieman after his conversion to Islam. He played with Miles Davis, Charlie Byrd, Earl Hines, Ella Fitzgerald and Dizzy Gillespie. He recorded with Thelonious Monk on the pianist’s historic first sessions as a leader for Blue Note in 1947, and also recorded with Gene Ammons, John Coltrane, Coleman Hawkins, Dexter Gordon, Max Roach, and others.
He settled in Europe in 1961, firstly in Sweden, then in Denmark. He worked with fellow expatriates Eric Dolphy, Bud Powell and Don Byas. He was part of the excellent Kenny Clarke-Francy Boland Big Band for 10 years from 1963, and also worked with the Danish Radio Big Band under Thad Jones. He returned to the USA in 1982, and lived in his native Florida. He died in 2002.
