...between Tehran and Washington. To stay out of trouble with the all-powerful Khomeini, most of the moderates are lying low. Asked three tunes at a news conference about the National Front, which for a time was Iran's leading moderate force, Ghotbzadeh asked with a sneer, "Does it exist?" He also warned that even if the Shah left the U.S., the hostages "definitely would not be released immediately." He refused to explain just what he meant by "immediately...
Drawing may be defined as the "art of representing the colored mass of objects or recording one's inner visions on a thin flat surface by means of lines which do not exist in nature." That, at least, is the explanation offered in Drawing by Genevieve Monnier and Bernice Rose (Rizzoli; 278 pages; $75), and it seems as good as any.

It doesn't matter if nobody wants Keith Richards living next door. The Rolling Stones exist on stage; it's the persona, not the person, that's germane to art, and "kiss-and-tell" histories like Up and Down are supremely irrelevant. As Jagger once told Chet Flippo, "It's the attitude." The endless "Midnight Rambler," rambling forever on Get Yer YaYas Out; those spectral opening...
