...Scotsman who plays bass guitar and is the group's chief songwriter, sings with the same tremulous passion that Clapton brings to guitar playing. When he huffs into a harmonica and wails the blues in his slightly burred accent, Chicago's South Side takes on a Glasgow glow...
...even trickier for Major Dick Desing, 36, who flies night missions out of Ubon; he must swoop low through enemy fire, seeking out moving trucks and barges with only the glow of his flares to guide him. "You see all the flak coming up, all the guns flashing on the ground," he says. "But you're too busy to be afraid. You're tracking, moving, dropping bombs and climbing."

On the whole her lighting is less murky than one normally gets. And she rightly employs a warm, mellow glow only once--for Duncan's arrival at Inverness Castle. She makes some use of a follow-spot, but it is never obtrusive in musical-comedy fashion. Many of her effects would be impossible without the marvelous unit set designed by Rouben Ter-Arutunian--two converging cavernous walls of shiny but unsmooth silver, parts of which...
