When my daughter was in elementary school her honors orchestra had "Mancini as a guest conductor and they played his catalogue of hits.

The Silver Surfer plays double bass?!



Heck I didn't know, I was more drawn to his prose:

"Even in failure there can be nobility!*** But failing to try brings only shame! Henceforth and forever — I am the Silver Surfer! To save our people, I have sworn to serve Galactus!"

*** Alas!, not a universal sentiment these days.
