...Modern Art. Down in the theater in the cellar I cried it out with Greta Garbo in Queen Christiana. Upstairs I walked through the most beautiful exhibit of photographs I have ever seen and finally, I found myself by the pool in the museum garden. It was dark and warm and Buddy Guy was playing. Close and sad at first, then wild and glad...
...ARTIST (Angel). This collection of lieder, arias and assorted other snippets gives a fair indication of Fischer-Dieskau's tal ent. He is a meticulous singer who never sloughs off a nuance or fuzzes an accent. Though his baritone is aptly described as dry rather than warm, he has range and power to spare.

It is not the land, either, for they seem to have no eyes for the green rolling infinity of the African bush, the visionary sunsets, the humming, warm, smoky nights. They are lobos, outcasts from society who fight every day in order to taste the excitement that comes in living close to violent death. If they survive Biafra, they will doubtless drift on in search of another war. Until then, their allegiance, temporary though it may be, is to Biafra...
