"Rather be a hammer than a nail..." from El Condor Pasa by Paul Simon, not a Rogers and Hammerstein show tune...
Armand Hammer (1898-1990) was Chairman of Occidental Petroleum and the only man to ever be a personal friend of both Vladimir Lenin AND Ronald Reagan. And, briefly, he did own the Arm & Hammer Co... The Banjo virtuoso on the Beverley Hillbillies theme was Earl Scruggs and he is the master of the three-finger style, not clawhammer. The Dillards were the fictitious Darling Family but on the Andy Griffith Show (Episode #88 and following). Next! Sterling K.

I can't think of the name of that Rodgers and Hammerstein show tune..... What really confuses me is the difference between Armand Hammer and Arm & Hammer. Thor's hammer's name is: Mjolnir. Remember the Dillards (Darling Family) on the Beverly Hillbillies and their awesome clawhammer banjo playing? My favorite shark is the Hammer Head. My favorite hammer is: the ball peen. And finally, wouldn't Sikhote Aline be the biggest hammer of all since it impacted in the land of the hammer and sickle? (I know, pretty lame!)
