The cast also included Maurice Franklin as Dr. Z ...

Back in 1980, I recall going to the cinema to see a new film, The Blues Brothers. Music and car chases…..what wasn’t there to love?

Musicians, artists, actors and authors (and any other creatives I haven’t nominated) have long taken pseudonyms.

Avant garde art collective The Residents took things beyond name chan…
