"It Came from Outer Space" was based on his screen treatment "Atomic Monster"; "The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms" featured one scene based on Bradbury's "The Fog Horn," about a sea monster mistaking the sound of a foghorn for a female's mating cry. Ray Harryhausen, a close friend of Bradbury's, created the stop-motion animation of the creature. (Bradbury returned the favor: His short story "Tyrannosaurus Rex" concerns a stop-motion animator who strongly resembles Harryhausen; later, Bradbury appeared in the 2011 documentary "Ray Harryhausen: Special Effects Titan.")"<br /><br />With the Incredible String Band, you can't go wrong with <a href="http://www.allmusic.com/artist/the-incredible-string-band-mn0000099561" rel="nofollow">the first two albums</a>. There is another song for the Sunday Service on one of them, also.<br /><br />DonIssa's Untidy Huthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07352841590717991698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5849270578857708223.post-8987884852455084732013-01-28T06:54:05.146-05:002013-01-28T06:54:05.146-05:00Well, Charles and Mary, it wasn't me - besides...Well, Charles and Mary, it wasn't me - besides yourselves, a couple of people have emailed me that they feel the connection, too.

Perhaps the "manly" style of singing with the repeat chorus? <br />Mary Ahearnlittlemancathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17042609230502564280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5849270578857708223.post-45797004920821814632013-01-27T11:02:51.796-05:002013-01-27T11:02:51.796-05:00Interestingly, it reminded me very quickly of the ...Interestingly, it reminded me very quickly of the Lumberjack song as well.
