...then, moving in next weekend will be Charles Tolliver, a great trumpet player who has hitherto received no exposure in the Boston area. There is a reason for that. Tolliver is an uncompromising jazz musician, who has shown no intentions of "crossing over" into that rock/soul/disco world where the more commercialized jazz performers play...
...fiction, the composer of Kierkegaardian monologues good and evil, the mini-historian of science, progress and civilization, and the pastoral poet. In addition he rounds off his complex work on a note of affirmation that the reader may find more determined than logical, like the highnote climax to a trumpet solo. For the hyphen that Gardner most ardently longs for is the one that might connect night to day, lost to found, chaos to order-all the enemies, all the opposites...
Instead of a trumpet, a harp weakens "Linda Paloma." Arthurt Gerst, the Liberace of the harp, turns this song into an appropriate theme for "The Edge of Night."

Tackle Gray, a black, trumpet-tootling Mississippian, and his sideman, white, fiddle-playing Alabamian John Hannah, are close friends off the field and dominant on it. Tight End Russ Francis brought to the team a free spirit and a Hawaiian hex for use against opponents when he arrived as a first-round draft pick last year. Francis owns his own Beechcraft and zips around in a Maserati...
