...whistles, nightmarish soft tones bent with the whammy bar, a brief display of pyrotechnics and then silence as the song ends and the world becomes trite again. There is a beautiful moment of absurdity preserved forever on record after "Machine Gun" ends when a lisping voice intones the pathetic replay to Hendirx' forceful musical statement: "No bullets...
...Simpson trial has reduced the humanistic principles and complex philosophy of American justice to blood sport. Television does its part, contributing instant replay, analysis and gladiatorial theme music. The print media join in, all of them reduced to tabloids in their feeding frenzy.

Like many a first work, Look Back in Anger is a memory play -- a self- portrait of the artist as an angry young man. Its most wrenching speech, about seeing a loved one die, is a replay of Osborne's witnessing the death of his father, an advertising copywriter in London. Jimmy's gibes at snooty relatives are Osborne's revenge on his barmaid mother Nellie Beatrice. Madeline, the lost love Jimmy pines for, is based on Stella Linden, a rep- company actress who first encouraged Osborne to write. At 21 he married actress Pamela Lane, whom he transformed with...
