...boot: "Goofy has so much to say, he changed his place with L.B.J." Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues, the album's lead cut, shows what a strong emphasis on clear vocals and tight arrangement can do for a Bob Dylan song. It is certainly the right approach in the further development of West...

Its inhabitants, the Turkana and Suk tribesmen, are dying off. Not surprisingly, only a few white men have ever explored the lake. One of them is Actor William Holden, who was camping there last week...
