...that sort of thing." In the grueling midday sun she toured places like a Harlingen health clinic, where she was given a Nuestra Hermana en Salud (Our Sister in Health) award, and she inspected a Fort Worth Y.M.C.A. camp with programs for the handicapped, where she took her turn on the obstacle course. Said a bystander in Los Angeles: "Now why couldn't she be the President...
...only other thing worth mentioning about Dracula--aside from the terrible Latex, greasepaint and collodion jobs on a few of the vampires, and the turn-of-the century, tradition vs. modernism theme Badham and Richter apparently tried to concoct in the visuals--is the great love scene that stopped the show on Broadway. As Dracula and Lucy begin to embrace, their figures dissolve into multi-colored silhouettes and recede into the distance, whereupon a bunch of shapely limbs wind and unwind to John Williams' less than austere music.

Young is in such thorough command throughout that he can jump a century between lines of a verse, begin a song like Powderfinger as a folk tale ("Look out, Mama, there's a white boat comin' up the river"), then turn it into an apocalypse. Of all rock's major figures, Young seems to have absorbed the most from the punk movement. The music on this record, punched up in part by Young's band, Crazy Horse, is full of brash challenge, like the best punk. Even his acoustic...
