Jazz DIZZY GILLESPIE & THE DOUBLE SIX OF PARIS (Philips) soar from high spot to high spot, from Oo-Shoo-Be-Doo-Be to Ow. Dizzy does blithe acrobatics with his trumpet, then stands aside for the legendary expatriates Bud Powell and Kenny Clark to shine briefly on piano and drums. In the meanwhile, the Double Six, a sextet of jazz singers, chime in like an instrumental combo, and Mimi Perrin, who has an extraordinarily agile voice, even takes on a couple of solos meant for Charlie Parker's horn...
...apparently love every audience to distraction. In soggy contrast, the players at the Wilbur merely act--read the lines, go through the paces--never approaching the wildly imaginative conviction of the inventors themselves.

The industry, hit by an economic recession, overcapacity and a cutback in Government stockpiling, has not looked very glamorous since 1958. But rising U.S. wealth has brought back some of the shine to aluminum. Nowadays it seems to be almost everywhere, from towering curtain-wall skyscrapers to a whole new family of seamless, zip-top, snap-top and soft-top aluminum cans. Though profits have not yet kept pace, production is running at 95% of capacity, and shipments have risen...
