...Billboard's top 100 records; the Cowsills' Hair is just a notch or so behind. Rising fast on the charts is a new disk of Good Morning Starshine by a singer named Oliver. Another performer who has successfully dipped into the Hair repertory is Nina Simone, whose soulful Ain't Got No/ I Got Life for a time was the top pop hit in Britain. Last month, the gospel-oriented Staple Singers came out with a lively version of Aquarius in "soul-folk." Peter Duchin, Barbra Streisand, Lester Lanin and Nelson Riddle have all taken Hair...
HAMLET. Some actors merely occupy space; Nicol Williamson rules the stage. His nasal voice has the sting of an adder; his furrowed brow is a topography of inconsolable anguish. His Hamlet is a seismogram of a soul in shock. Here is a Hamlet of spleen and sorrow, of fire and ice, of bantering sensuality, withering sarcasm and soaring intelligence. He cuts through the music of the Shakespearean line to the marrow of its meaning. He spares the perfidious king who killed his father no contempt, but he saves his rage for the unfeeling gods who, in all true tragedy, make...
...Havana. Pringle reported that Cleaver has toured Cuba, but has not yet met Premier Fidel Castro. Cleaver's presence has been ignored by the heavily censored Cuban press.

As scholars have long known, that formula was never entirely true, but it was tidy enough to shape the thought of a schoolboy. In the true sense of the meaning of Renaissance, it can be argued, an earlier rebirth occurred at the end of the 11th and the beginning of the 12th centuries. The age produced in its cathedrals perhaps the greatest architecture yet contrived...
...particular sound-breathy, but also powerful and deep-grounded-in part, as he once said, "because I was trying to play over seven or eight other horns all the time." In 1939, while working with his own combo in New York City, he recorded a version of Body and Soul for RCA Victor's Bluebird label-one of the authentic masterpieces of jazz-a flight of improvised melody as carefully organized as variations on a fugue, a gravely sweet meditation on the hidden melodies within a commonplace tune...
