EDDIE HARRIS, PLUG ME IN (Atlantic). An electric tenor saxophone? The idea may offend jazz purists, but rock fans will get a charge out of this easygoing soul session.

In its first action -which incidentally earned her crew combat pay for all of September - the New Jersey silenced four anti-aircraft positions just above the DMZ and twelve miles inland.
