...singer. In contrast to the blowsy, brassy backing of three earlier LPs, she is supported this time by the Full Tilt Boogie Band, a tightly knit combo dominated by Richard Bell's superb piano.

To hear her build Kris Kristofferson's country blues ballad, Me & Bobby McGee, from tree-shaded quiet into high-noon bustle is to know that pacing and nuance are not just the property of lieder singers.

Corris's time, 2:04.6 was 2.4 seconds faster than he and ever swum the distance before. Brown was luckier in then 500-yard freestyle, his specialty. He moved out in the last lap and won in 5:07.7, pulling Harvard's Pete Adams to a 5:08 time, the fast-improving sophomore's best time to date...
