...trouble is that the slices are cut thinner than a bargain LP. They are really just slivers or, more properly, shaving of the sort that pile up beneath an ineptly managed saw. Ill-assorted, illarranged, they seem simply to have been swept up and deposited at random beween the songs in a film that cannot really be said to have been written or directed at anything like a professional evel...

...record on which eclecticism is the catchword and "Reckless Abandon" the title involves more risks than a straight forward rock LP. Surprisingly, only "Child's Song," a piece about a young man leaving home to discover himself, falls completely flat. When Tom Rush recorded this song, he understated the lyrics, using only a guitar to accompany his soft, husky voice.

...away. After 128 years of near total obscurity, the three-family town was put on the map abruptly by Waylon Jennings' hit recording. Luckenbach, Texas sped to the top of the country-music charts, and the album it came from, Ol' Waylon, became Jennings' fourth gold LP within a year...

...scheduling Beatles marathons and playing such old faithfuls as Hey Jude and Get Back regularly. In record shops last week, three of the bestselling albums were by the Beatles-including a newly issued "live" recording made at the Hollywood Bowl in 1964 and '65 and a double-LP set taped in a Hamburg joint in 1962 before the Beatles even were the Beatles...
