...past and present, like a mind that jumps spontaneously from one thought to another. "Even if I were to sit down here and describe my career to you," she says, "I wouldn't be precise and orderly; I would go from event to event."

...thanks for printing Mr. Fried's column. When an introspective, intelligent and talented musician sings from his heart about experiences with love, herion addiction, and with the death of a close friend, it's nice to know that there's enough variety in the world that a critic could call the music "silly."

He began to find those friendships, physical and emotional, that he had desired for so long. One, with a happily married ex-London policeman, lasted some 40 years...
