...Connally's mentor, Lyndon B. Johnson, had a courage hang-up too. It lay in another direction. He talked about how he resembled Matt Dillon riding into town on his big horse. How Texas Rangers, men he admired, just kept coming at you even though they were shot. How he could not be a man to back away from a fight. There are some historians who believe L.B.J.'s narrow view of courage led us deeper into Viet...

...however, painfully predictable; Porter says "There was a flash of light," and, lo, a light flashes. As she talks about everything going black, hey, there just happens to be a blackout. These intermittent flashes light a set dotted by oppressive grey lumps of cardboard and paper mache which hang above the audience like dreary smog drenched clouds...

Unfortunately, the artists seem to have conspired to ruin this effect. William Wainwright's plans to build a series of giant mobiles to hang from the glass roof seem misdirected. Although Wainwright's compositions of oblong chrome and reflecting prisms would be great in Boston-Boston, one wonders what they'll add to the station.

...voice tingles, hums and vibrates on combination of Minnie Ripperton and notes from high to low, sounding like a Denice Williams. With the exception of occasionally explosive tracks, the tone is predominantly soft and smooth. She plays a masterful improvisation of the keyboard in an acoustic piano solo, "Hang it Up." In "Changes (In Your Life)," Rushen arranges the guitars and seasons the sound with a peppery synchronization of handclaps and fingersnaps...
