...Black, does this mean I cannot? Does this mean I won't succeed unless I approach all white people hidden behind the veil of brotherly love and friendship like a conniving Sammy Davis Jr.? Spare me, Mr. Kilson, I will not stoop so low. As for your concept of success, take a look at all of the past few years' graduates presently enrolled at Harvard Law, Business, and Medical Schools, Stanford Law School, Duke Medical School, University of Chicago Law School, and a long list of others just as impressive. Let me tell you now that these are people whom...
...DIDN'T WORK because Duryea so successfully developed a schizophrenic image. With the conservative upstate vote relatively safe, if only by virtue of party orthodoxy, he has managed to do what no conservative Republican has been able to accomplish in 30 years--impress the city voters.

Bowie meets David Eno on the third side. Though the graffiti in the bathroom at WHRB proclaims "Eno is god," his success as artist and producer is a curse as well as a blessing. Eno specializes in the synthesized wail. He is credited with co-authoring only one song on the side, but the spacey sound is heavily influenced by his work. The titles are all new and banal with the exception of "Speed of Life," which has an unusual, European-pop kick. Kraftwerk is three albums ahead of Bowie-Eno here. This side should come complete with a light...
