Kulam Yodim Arik Einstein is known as one of the greatest singers in Israel's history. Upon his release from the IDF in 1959, in which he performed in the famous Nahal Band, Einstein joined the Green Onion band and the Sambation theatre. In 1960, he released his first solo album. He sang under the pseudonym Ari Goren, and then went on to join the Yarkon Bridge Trio, where he performed with Yehoram Gaon, Beni Amdorsky and later Israel Gurion. As the band became successful, so did Einstein. In 1964, he played in the comedy film Sallah Shabbati, along with Chaim Topol, who was also from the Green Onion band. In 1968, Einstein released his album Mazal Gdi, which was not very successful. He therefore looked for a new tune, and went on to produce the album Puzi with the Churchills band, which was considered the first Israeli rock album. Einstein was part of the critically acclaimed, early 1970s TV series Lool (Chicken Coop), a sketch and song show with an original format and a creative cast. The show had an off-the-wall sense of humor not unlike Monty Python’s Flying Circus. However, it also featured songs written by some of the most prominent poets and performed by some of the best singers Israel has ever produced. In spite of the fact that it had only four parts, it remains a cult-show to this day. The show, as well as movies such as Shablool (Snail), showcased Einstein both as a first rate singer and a top comedian.
