...song selection follows their tried and true formula. Loggins contributes a mover, "Didn't I Know You When," and a soft solo love song, simply entitled "A Love Song." Danny Loggins, his non-performing brother who was the subject of "Danny's Song," offers another standout tune, "Sailin' the Wind." Messina tempers all the breezy music with his own brand of melancholy rock in "Travelin' Blues," "You Need a Man" and "Pathway to Glory." They combine for a pair of fun songs in their "Your Momma Don't Dance" mold, "My Music" and "Watching the River...

"Technical aspects are more important to me than showmanship aspects," he says. "People who come expecting to compare my show to Marceau's are going to be rather disappointed." Don't let his warning...
...woman in particular who does not share the desire for equal status is Phyllis Schlafly, founder and prime mover of Stop ERA. The wife of a wealthy lawyer in Alton, Ill., and the mother of six children, Mrs. Schlafly first came to public attention in the 1960s with a right-wing treatise in support of Barry Goldwater's presidential candidacy, A Choice Not an Echo, and stayed there with a fiery monthly newsletter named The Schlafly Report (cost: $5 per year).
