...Last and spooky on When the Night Comes Falling from the Sky, one of those pacesetter Dylan songs in which romantic anguish kaleidoscopes into a sneak preview of Armageddon.

What's New, released last week by Asylum, avoids all the obvious routes. Powered by the celestial arrangements of Nelson Riddle, the album is not a sentimental journey, a dizzy camp-out or a show-biz grandstand play...

So much so that the columnist to the lovelorn must banish her stash to the next room during working hours. ("I wouldn't dare keep a box at my elbow.") Confesses Landers abjectly: "I am hooked on chocolate. I crave it, and nothing else will...
