...regular adult, a "pale adult" and a slightly different form of the bird seen in eastern Canada. Another drawing portrays a group of robins in typical feeding postures on the ground. Beneath the artwork, Sibley presents a detailed description of robins' vocal behavior ("Call varies from a low, mellow pup or a sharp, clucking, often doubled piik to a sharper, rapid, urgent series kli quiquiquiqui koo..."). All this for what is probably the most easily recognized bird in North America...
...more "rock" than others, and in the end we were able to shape each one without disrupting the continuity of the overall sound. The snare and bass drum on "Isn't It Strange" got a "big kick in the arse," to quote Ellard, while "Coast of California" kept its mellow-thing, true to the state it was written in. Meanwhile, the glockenspiel part got blended in. It's still there, believe me, but let's just say it's not upstaging the lead vocal...

...heart-melting romance with guy talk for the fellas and a mellow alt-rock sound track, Ed fits the 30-ish heterosexual-couple demographic like a comfy pair of Dockers. Maybe too much so: funny but safe, it's TV's answer to the date movie. But the laid-back Cavanagh is winning as a Quixote determined to win his love by making "a complete ass" of himself. He's the male version of the beautiful blond with glasses--a handsome guy we can pretend will have to work to get the girl. Whether you hail from Springfield or Soho...
