...this is not to say that the whole concert was filled with antics such as these. In "Desolation Row" and "Just Like A Woman," Dylan is unabashedly gentle. In particular, "Just Like A Woman" on Live 1966 is a striking contrast to the version on Blonde on Blonde. Indeed, the Blonde on Blonde version, highly criticized by feminists, sounds almost misogynistic. But that night the words "She takes just like a woman, yes she does! She makes love just like a woman, yes she does! And she aches just like a woman, yes she does! But she breaks just like...
Between each group of pieces, Lawrence-King inserted relevant historical and technical information in his soothing, English-accented voice. He briefly demonstrated the three rows of strings on the double harp (a seeming irony), which encompass all the notes of a piano. He also explained the necessity of reaching through the strings on the outer rows to reach the sharps and flats which lie in the middle row, which made all the more obvious the tremendous skill and agility required to play the harp as beautifully as Lawrence-King does...

More than 480 people have been executed in the United States since the death penalty was reinstated in 1976, 160 of them in Texas.

While he and his conspirators made meticulous plans to escape, they...
...fact, the seven had it better than most at Huntsville. They had "work capable" status, which means that they could work either as custodians or in the prison's garment factory, unlike most Texas death row inmates, who are "locked down" in their cells 23 hours a day. "Work capable" inmates also can go in and out of their cells whenever they please, and have the opportunity to work in an air-conditioned environment during the sweltering summer months. Texas prison cells have no air-conditioning. That, in itself, is tantamount to a death sentence...
