Riddle me this: Frank Gorshin was more than just The Riddler on Batman.   He was in some classic fifties exploitation, b-movies including “Hot Rod Girl,” “Runaway Daughters,” “Dragstrip Girl,” and “Invasion of the Saucer Men”.     He also brought the character Sammy Glick to life in the broadway production of “What Makes Sammy Run.”     He died in 2005, two days after his final performance in an episode of CSI.

“Mickey Katz plays music for Weddings, Bar Mitzvahs and Brisses” Capitol Records. Yiddish, klezmer and comedy!

Side note: Katz is the father of actor Joel (“Cabaret”) Grey.

For the straight klezmer side of Mickey Katz, check out the CD “Don Byran’s Plays the Music of Mickey Katz” (Elektra Nonesuch, 1993).

“The Horn Meets the Hornet” – what a concept!   I imagine the Green Hornet going backstage after an Al Hirt concert on Bourbon Street in New Orleans to meet when this candid photo was snapped.
