...summer, but just now making it to the shelves at the Coop, is devoid of the heavy string section that made "Fly With the Wind" such a hit. This record is much more on line with the pulsating sounds of Trident. The most popular cut, at least for the disc jockeys, has been "indo Serenade," with its clearly defined melody and beautiful romantic piano work by Tyner.

The Jochum is recorded very close up, too much so at one or two points, but the compensation is the thorough delineation of Wagner...
Vance was soon promoted to Secretary of the Army and in 1964 to Deputy Defense Secretary, the No. 2 job in the military-a post he had to leave in 1967 because of an excruciatingly painful slipped disc in his spine. To get better support for his back, Vance used to ride in the front seat of command cars, with the result that the aides riding in the rear got all his salutes...
