CHICK COREA, NOW HE SINGS, NOW HE SOBS (Solid State). The new pianist in Miles' regular group, Corea creates airy, crystal lines that have an almost fugal precision. Working here with Bassist Miroslav Vitous and Drummer Roy Haynes, the self-possessed young player neither sings nor sobs but delivers fleet atonal improvisations, buoyed by light chords that almost never come to a resolution...
THAD JONES-MEL LEWIS JAZZ ORCHESTRA, MONDAY NIGHTS (Solid State). When they are not touring the world, the artists can be found at home in the Village Vanguard on Monday nights. All the joy, humor and vigor of these home-stand evenings are preserved on this second live recording.

Though the City's elections are non-partisan, attempts are sometimes made to arrange electoral coalitions. The Cambridge Civic Association (CCA), for example, encourages its supporters to give all their votes to endorsed candidates pledging to follow its "good government" politics. Yet each of the CCA councillors-who always number four-can be identified, without too much difficulty, with one or more particular blocs...
