...cutlass-swinging Pittsburgh Pirate and a stein-hoisting Milwaukee Brave, Mullin, 66, has added a New York Met-looking a bit like a Little Leaguer but hustling along like a champion. And of course, says Mullin, "my favorite baseball team has got to be the Mets now. They are great, wonderful, exciting...
Rock pioneers like the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and Jefferson Airplane developed a distinctive, cohesive style by playing together in obscurity before they reached stardom. By contrast, the new Supergroups bring together mature musicians with different traditions and personal tastes who are capable of creating what Winwood calls "the great blend in music." "It's all coming together -blues, jazz, folk, pop, rock, everything," he says. The prospects are fascinating.

...snippets from, say, the Baroque, French Impressionism and Viennese post-Romanticism are pasted into surrealistic aural collages that would lose much of their point for anyone who had not heard LPs of the originals.

Two years ago, she even applied to be an astronaut. "I could...
...Next Test. The likelihood that speculators will soon find another way to outgain stock-market averages is not great. Last week the stock market slowly extended a technical rally from its July 29th low of 801.96 on the Dow-Jones industrial average. The average rose 16.37 to close at 837.25. Brokers almost unanimously expect that the rally will give way soon to a new drop that will "test" the low. Opinion is divided about evenly on whether or not the market will pass that test...
