...were more together than we had been for a long time," said John Lennon last week. "It's lucky when you get all four feeling funky at the same time." Lennon was talking about a recording session last summer that produced the latest Beatles record. Out this week, it is called Abbey Road, in honor of the group's favorite studios in London. The disk proves lucky indeed -for listeners who like being disarmed by the world's four most fortunate and famous music makers. Melodic, inventive, crammed with musical delights, Abbey Road is the best thing...
...usual, most of the songs are by McCartney and Lennon. Yet it is George Harrison's Something, on which he solos as singer and guitarist, that is already getting the biggest play on U.S. radio stations. Beatle-watchers believe that Something is something of a milestone for George.

The 76-year-old vaudevillian co-stars with four sisters who, though the oldest is not quite 30, are all 14-year veterans of The Lawrence Welk Show. The standard finale of their series will be an upbeat musical tribute to a city. Opening night it was Chicago (that toddlin' town), which the girls cheerily hymned as "the convention center of the nation...
...citizens of a strange world. We are the products of an cra that has vomited up Silly Putty and Vietnam. Norman O. Brown and Milton Berle, Nelson Rockefeller and John Lennon, the Mets and the Chicago cops, Benson and Hedges 100's and LSD, Rex Reed and the Singing Nun. Are these the best of times or the worst...
