Jeff, why don’t you answer? Lassie take this message to Jeff. Jeff, found this funny herb Gramps was growing behind the 4H club that now helps me understand that Charlie Parker music. Please bring Crack pipe, Porky.
Tommy had the staring role (Bart Collins) in “The 5000 Fingers of Dr. T” in 1953, which was a live actor production of a Dr. Suess screenplay. The movie was as bizzare, psychedelic, and “out-there” as any of his subsequent animated productions. I have always loved the duet sung by Bart and Mr. Zabladowski (the plummer). It is a rare sweet and tender scene between a boy and a man who is not his father; something you will not see in movies these days.
