...fashion somewhat since these recordings were made in the early 1950s; nowadays he is considered just a bit slick and overrefined. But concert pianists, more conscious of quality than fashion, still justly envy the high gloss and exquisite workmanship of Gieseking. Seraphim's low price and lucid reproduction of the mono-only sound make the release a prize for the economy-minded...
...unity proposal is a lucid, ingenious compromise that strives to preserve the best elements of widely varying traditions of piety and polity.

His writing is compelling, and although he often gets carried away by his own black sense of humor, his thinking is lucid. He is attuned to what is going on among the young, the black and the poor today. Almost by definition (and certainly by self-admission), he is biased about everything. His pieces slash away at Viet Nam, complacent politicians, the medical profession, radio journalism, big companies, the pretensions of the "Now People...
