Governor Emmett Shannon is a mick manque who goes to Mass only when the press is present. His battle with a contracting czar over the grafting of parking facilities onto Boston's tiny, jewel-like Public Gardens is neither as funny nor as deadly as it should be. Still, Edward Sheehan is expert at mapping the social-climbing customs of the local clans. Irish civic life-with its blend of the sacred and profane, its flouting of the separation between church and state -is the author's real subject. The Emmett Shannons of the world still have their...
Gimme Shelter. This is the Maysles brothers and Charlotte Zwerin's "documentary" of the Rolling Stones' American tour. They succeed to a great extent in capturing the performer who is Mick Jagger. Near the film's end, when the star performs to a violent crowd at Altamont Speedway, losing his hold on the audience and surveying a killing a few yearns from the stage, the effect is devastating. Gimme Shelter is a highly subjective film and as such should not be confused with an NBC news documentary; still, the filmmakers have shaped their materials well to make the movie they...

...superman. But he is certainly a one-man music factory with a rich bag of assorted talents. He plays piano with the urbane primitivism of a Glenn Gould thumping out variations on rock 'n' roll's Jerry Lee Lewis. His singing style ranges from a Mick Jagger snarl to a delicate, insinuating plaint that recalls Jose Feliciano. As a composer, John has already turned out more than a dozen of the year's best songs-in styles that include country rock, country blues, just plain country, gospel, soft rock and classical rock...
...time the Stones appeared, several heads had been busted and the crowd was in a frightened, surly mood. Even Mick Jagger, rock's definitive superstar, could not get them to cool down and listen to the music. The crowd pushed closer and closer to the stage, and the Angels just as angrily pushed them back. Suddenly, someone pulled a gun. The Angels went after him, knifed him down and did him in. Those close enough to the incident were appalled. Those who were not, quickly caught the mood of tragedy and left the concert silent and shaken...
