Hey, Joe


Thanks Joe for this nice “concept” 45. I wonder if they had one for Matthew. Like getting that “license plate” for your first bike. Joe also has a cool blog called ArtLung

The Riddler unmasked


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.
Katz in the cradle

“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).
Prison camp

Bob Crane was an LA Dj, accomplished drummer, actor, tv star and porn addict. He did it all.
