Extra NOTES : It's a little known fact , but for a long time it was supposed that it was KISS drummer Peter Criss on the photo (center >>) without his famous "cat" costume and make-up, though Peter Criss denies it was him. He was credited as a drummer named "Ming The Merciless" even though he didn't play on the album. None noticed back then, until 2002, after it was mentioned in the KISS Book "Alive & Forever" (by Curt Gooch and Jess Suhs). In 2012 Michael McKean responded on his twitter that "Peter Criss was nowhere near this project. The drummer (on the photograph) is Don Poncher, aka Ming the Merciless". Lenny and the Squigtones is a musical group composed of Michael McKean and David Lander, the two actors who played the characters Lenny and Squiggy on the television series Laverne & Shirley. The group's eponymous debut album, Lenny and the Squigtones, was released on the Casablanca label in 1979. Otherwise forgetable, the album is now a collector�s item because of credited guitar work by future Spinal Tap member Nigel Tufnel (Christopher Guest). Included an early version of "Heavy Duty", which was later recorded by Spinal Tap. Also includes 'Murph', the keyboard player from The Blues Brothers. Lenny & Squiggy.

Biography ↓ Discography ↓ Songs ↓ Credits ↓ facebook twitter tumblr. Artist Biography by Ned Raggett. If it weren't for certain surprising and, in retrospect, wonderful connections to some of rock music's funniest moments, the team of Lenny & Squiggy might have been written off as mere late-'70s pop culture. As it was, the fame of the duo relied solely on the smash TV sitcom Laverne and Shirley, a nostalgia-laden look back at Milwaukee of the early '60s itself, spun off from the equally retrospective Happy Days. The two were nerdish greasers known for bursting into the main characters' apartment without knocking -- if nothing else pioneering the equally ephemeral fame of Kramer in Seinfeld two decades later. Whiny, ridiculous, and just plain dumb, the duo at its best hilariously twisted the rough cool of early Marlon Brando and James Dean into entertaining laughs, especially with its nutty band Lenny & the Squigtones. The secret of the characters' success, though, lay in the talented performers who played them: Michael McKean and David Lander, respectively. Both were veterans of the Credibility Gap, a Firesign Theatre-inspired L.A. comedy troupe that also involved accomplished satirist Harry Shearer. McKean also had some band work under his belt thanks to a stint in the Left Banke, a musical training that would come in handy with Lenny & Squiggy and beyond. So popular was the duo and its show that McKean and Lander found themselves able to sign a deal with Casablanca -- no fools, they decided they wanted to stage their own show as Lenny & the Squigtones, enabling their work to stand on its own. The end result, recorded live at Los Angeles' Roxy in 1979, was the slightly redundantly titled Lenny & the Squigtones, at once a wickedly funny take on late- '50s/early-'60s pop rock and a great extension of the cool-only-to-themselves characters. No more albums surfaced from the duo, which disappeared along with the show as the early '80s continued. However, its sole album proved prescient in more ways than one, when McKean hooked up with Shearer and one of the Squigtones' guitarists -- Christopher Guest -- and created the idea of an equally parodic romp through heavy metal with a band called Spinal Tap. And the rest, as they say, is history. Lenny & the Squigtones. With Lander yelping at the audience to "sit down, relax, and dance" as the band takes to the stage, Squigtones makes a darn good case that the truly successful joke/music duo of the Carter administration were these guys instead of the Blues Brothers. Steering clear of covers in favor of their own nutball pastiches and lyrical loopiness, McKean and Lander are at once better and funnier than, say, Sha Na Na as well. While it helps to have been familiar with the Lenny & Squiggy schtick from the Laverne and Shirley shows, the two actors wisely don't reference the TV appearances much -- it's a standalone goof and works just right as that. Backed by a capable five-piece band, with McKean's future Spinal Tap bandmate Christopher Guest on guitar (and credited as Nigel Tufnel!), McKean and Lander tackle both their between-song patter and musical efforts with entertaining gusto, playing off the enthusiastic audience without breaking character. When it comes to the music, there's everything from teen death songs like "Starcrossed" to the easy swinging title track to the "unproduced" horror classic "Creature Without a Head." One absolute scream that has to be heard by all Brian Wilson fanatics is "King of the Cars," an early Beach Boys-style surf rocker with especially nutty work. McKean has the better voice, able to sing it straight and throw in a few amusing basso profundo parts, but Lander has a fine falsetto that works well, and they harmonize more than fine when required. As for the spoken-word parts between songs, where to begin? "So's Your Old Testament" finds the two arguing over Jesus' religion -- Catholic or Lutheran? -- while some of the throwaways nail it. Thus the introduction to the dramatic ballad "Foreign Legion of Love" -- "This next song is about the mysterious East! Home of the mysterious Easter Bunny!"

Ming The Merciless was once purported to be Kiss drummer Peter Criss (without "cat" costume and make-up), though Criss denied it was him. McKean has since stated it was drummer Don Poncher. Lenny & the Squigtones - "The Jolliest Fat Man" Videos for Engineers. Most people who were around in the 1970s -- and who are also still around today ;-) -- remember the sitcom "Laverne & Shirley." It was popular as a part of the whole 1950s renaissance that was happening with shows like "Happy Days," "Grease," "American Graffiti," et al, that captured the attention of the parents of we teenagers as well as weselves [sic]. I was being held against my will at Southern Senior High School at the time, and many of the kids had adopted a "greaser" lifestyle that included cigarette packs rolled up in t-shirt sleeves and Brylcreem in the hair (mainly just the guys), leather jackets and Keds high-top sneakers (guys and gals), and poodle skirts and saddle Oxford shoes (mainly just the gals). Two weirdo characters, Lenny and Squiggy, made cameo appearances in just about every Laverne & Shirley show, but occasionally they were the main players. Such was the case in the episode titled ,"Oh Hear the Angels' Voices," (season 2) where Carmine talks the crew into performing in a Christmas show at the local mental hospital. It was then that Lenny & the Squigtones made their musical debut while singing, "The Jolliest Fat Man." Thanks to the miracle that is the Internet, you can watch the performance below. Merry Christmas, and you're welcome. Lenny & the Squigtones - "The Jolliest Fat Man" (Yes, the guy in the doctor's garb on the sideline is Dr .Johnny Fever from the WKRP in Cincinnati show) The Jolliest Fat Man Lyrics* (Laverne & Shirley - 1976, Season 2) Performed by David L. Lander (Squiggy) and Michael McKean (Lenny, on guitar) Squiggy: It was Christmas Eve night at the poorhouse, And all of the poorpers[sic] were there, I stepped in because it was snowing, And snow always screws up my hair.

  • Winter 2018 Newsletter of Actors and Others for Animals
    WINTER 2018 NEWSLETTER OF ACTORS AND OTHERS FOR ANIMALS WWW.ACTORSANDOTHERS.COM It was more than 25 years ago that Actors and Others established its medical subsidy program. Today, the number of requests we receive is staggering and rising rapidly. Without our help, many pets would not get any treatment and face an unknown future. Pet guardians don’t anticipate that their pets may get ill or injured, and many find themselves financially unable to provide treatment. And this is even more widespread nowadays with more and more animal shelters giving away pets in an effort to adopt our more animals, charging very little or having special “2 for $10.00” promotions. While it is impossible to predict when and what illness or injury may strike your pet, it is important to understand that at some point it will. We see a lot of bladder stones, urinary infections, tumors and eye removals. A great many of the requests for help we receive are for broken bones, lacerations and amputations caused by being hit by a car. We also see a lot of cases of injuries from dog fights. The common denominator in a lot of these cases is that the dog was not on a leash. Delay in getting veterinary care also results in infections and abscesses. “Intervention” is the new buzz word in animal welfare to keep pets in the homes, and Actors and Others’ long-standing veterinary intervention program once again has shown itself to lead the way! HERE ARE A FEW EXAMPLES OF HOW YOUR SUPPORT HAS HELPED BOTH PETS AND THEIR GRATEFUL GUARDIANS Lindsey G.

Indeed, the first feature length talking film, The Jazz Singer (Crosland 1927), starred Al Jolson as Jakie Rabinowitz, a young man struggling to reconcile his Jewish identity to his success at performing in blackface to white audiences. Since then, there has been an endless stream of movies about music. Some are explicitly biographical, with actors cast as iconic musicians: e.g., The Glenn Miller Story (Mann 1954), The Buddy Holly Story (Rash 1978), Ray (Hackford 2004), Walk the Line (Mangold 2005) and Bohemian Rhapsody (Singer 2018).
