...romantic as they are atonal, and intuitive, crosshatched rhythms that emerge and then break off. Helping him project this engaging moodiness are John Gilmore's thin-edged tenor sax, Bobby Hutcherson's delicate vibes, the attentive probings of Bassist Richard Davis and the irregular cymbals of Drummer Joe Chambers. The group's finest moments come in The Groits, which, despite its ugly name, consists of lovely integrated weavings of Hill's almost Monkish chords, Hutcherson's melodic accents and Davis' bass designs...

Rome's Joe Colombo carries out the same principle by furnishing his interior with blocklike boxes that can be interchanged and attached to each other by magnets. Each box in Colombo's "mono-home" is multipurpose, can serve to house a TV or to store kitchen utensils. "A bachelor buys some of these pieces for his home," Colombo explains. "He marries and he adds more pieces; he has children and he adds more pieces-it goes upward, sideways, inward and downward." An unexpected guest arrives?
