...time, it was still impossible to tell whether the Hot Licks had given their Hicks up, or if Dan Hicks had simply gotten in his last licks. In either case, Hicks, sans Licks, will appear Sunday night at Symphony Hall, probably playing the same undefinable mish-mash of rock, jug-band, and jazz-type numbers he played with his group. Nobody on the newsboard had any of his records, so I dug up one semi-authoritative opinion: "His music's like thirties' jazz mixed in with a soap commercial." But the consensus is he's fun to hear...
Geoff Muldaur, who co-founded the Kweskin Jug Band and was with them up until it disintegrated in 1969, is one of the main reasons Better Days is so different from Butterfield's previous band. Muldaur is an adept slide guitarist who carries several blues styles with him.

Braque was not primarily a painter of the human figure; when one appears in his work, as in The Model, 1939, she is treated as an object among other objects; the light and shadow fall on the face as they might on a Braque jug, bisecting it, reducing it to a formula with out - or perhaps beyond - personality...
