You know the song “Nature Boy” - “there was a boy… a very strange enchanted boy…”? Nat King Cole made it is his own, but it was written by a bloke named eden abhez (he refused to capitalise his name), a Los Angeles bohemian who for a time lived underneath the first ‘L’ of the Hollywood sign - which until the 40s actually read “Hollywoodland”, the name of an early piece of property speculation in which Mack Sennett of Keystone Kops fame had some big money.
