FORTUNATELY, almost miraculously, a documentary filmmaker named Glen Pearey followed the 1973 UFW grape strike in the valleys of California and has produced a moving, intelligent hour-long film called Fighting for Our Lives. Pearey, working usually with only one assistant to handle the sound, followed the UFW for five months--April to September, 1973--through the valleys, along the highways, and into the fields, showing the workers expelled from the fields, whispering about fighting back and finally organizing to get back the contracts. The organizing is crucial: not only is it the source for much of the film...
Meals and Medicare. Also genuinely devoted to their pets are such people as Glen Crank, a blue-collar worker in Hammond, Ind., whose dependents include a poodle, a pointer, a Saint Bernard (caskless), a cat, a ferret and a cougar named Rajah; to defray Rajah's $1,000 acquisition costs, say the Cranks, they had to "eat beans for months."

...Brothers were the last holdouts of the genuine breed of sixties rock, and they were the best in the business-well-balanced, super-competent and, with their steeped-in-Georgia soulfulness, basic. Playing "Whipping Post" under the bright lights, the sound was fierce--Bill Graham introduced them at Watkins Glen as "the band with balls." Well, that was fine, but there was nothing distinctive about them except that they were uncorrupted and the best. Duane Allman might have been the finest white guitarist alive, but he was at heart a sideman, and often his brilliant work would get lost because...
