...Orleans newspapers and many once-loyal do-gooders. With the segregation issue thrust at him, Morrison proclaimed that he was a better segregationist than Davis (who, he claimed, once ran an "integrated" nightclub in California), spent too much time criticizing Songwriter Davis' risque compositions (Red Nightgown Blues, Organ Grinder Blues...
...strings, trumpets and drums, but to these he sometimes added oboes, bassoons and horns. After Handel's death (1759), well-wishers by the dozens set to work "modernizing" the Messiah: Mozart added new parts for violins and violas, used wind instruments in parts previously reserved for the organ or harpsichord; English Composer Ebenezer Prout in 1902 brought out a thickly orchestrated edition retaining most of Mozart's additions (but printing them in small notes).

Out went some of Tuesday's boring repetitions of what Pravda, the only-paper in Russia with a Monday edition, had said the day before. On the front page, once the unassailable domain of party catechisms, news stories surprisingly appeared, and the ponderous headlines (A CLEAR DEMONSTRATION OF THE UNITY OF THE SOVIET PEOPLE AND OF RALLYING AROUND THE COMMUNIST PARTY) became downright breezy (I VISITED THE VINNITSA SPY CENTER...
