I will *NOT* be mad with anyone who gets me this for Xmas! Yes, this is my Star Wars post of the day. While I may have been more into this as a "YOUT" (that's right no "h", some of you will get this)... this will still make me smile widely!

SY MANN - SWITCHED ON SANTA - My Favorite Things (1970)
VIDEO: Scenes from Tales From The Crypt (GB 1972) Episode: All Through The House Starring Joan Collins
After Joanne Clayton (Joan Collins) kills her husband on Christmas Eve, she prepares to hide his body but hears a radio announcement stating that a homicidal maniac (Oliver MacGreevy) is on the loose. She sees the maniac outside her house but can't call the police because of her husband's body. The segment ends with the maniac, dressed as Santa Claus, being let into the house by Joanne's little daughter. He strangles Joanne to death.
If you dig deep you will learn Sy Mann contributed his talents to numerous stars like Barbra Streisand, Tiny Tim, Sammy Davis, Connie Francis. Add the fact that he made the move in 1953 from Radio to Television, becoming the new musical leader for the Arthur Godfrey show. The best part of that for me is that he replaced a fellow called Dick Hyman. ;) A news article may have read "Sy Mann, no more Dick Hyman".
Have a great Wednesday!
Headed off to Universal shortly. If you are in the Hollywood/ Los Angeles area tonight, see the screenings of the 7 minute films at the 48 hour film festival at the Fairfax theatre. I can grab info for anyone interested in attending. My friend, Rik Carter, has a film featured. After that, MissingToof presents the FREE dance party, LAUNDROMAT, at Libertine (lounge, restaurant & bar).
