    DO NOT forget him in Death Wish...the AZ client of Charles Bronson's architect who introduced the ACLU-member NYC liberal to

    Angel: “Who will mourn for Angel Martin ?”
Rockford: “Probably a couple of bookies.”
RIP Angel.

    He played Philo Sandeen in Bret Maverick, one of my favourite shows back in the day even though it lasted only one season (1981-82).

    Best TV series ever. Bought the DVD set and watch an episode every Friday night, the same night it aired on NBC. If ever you’re in Malibu, stop at the Paradise Cove Beach Cafe - aka The Sand Castle - and eat there. Breakfast, lunch, dinner. The best sunnyside up eggs I’ve ever had.

    He was on TV so much in the 70s and 80s I got sick of seeing him.

    Wasn’t he the tank machinic in Kelly’s Heroes? Angel was Little Joe. RIP. 😢
 And I had just watched that movie [again] last night.

    I just saw some of his more recent work, a movie called The Second Time Around from 2016. Basically about two senior widowers finding live again. Worth a watch.

    Every time a bell rings an Angel gets his wings.

    Exactly right.
He came across as very believable and entertainingly humorous without ever detracting from the story line (like the character Fonz eventually evolved into in Happy Days). ... Angel Martin ... the loser whose connections, the pay day, big break was just always around the corner, and he would even sell out his friends to get it. And his break never came, in some cases he was only lucky to remain alive.
RIP

    He played a memorable role in Kelly's Heroes as well.
