...scene is generally sedate, but things can get out of hand when customers develop what Manager Inoue calls "a more than routine attachment to some of our boys." One lady arrived to find her favorite host with another client. She promptly belted down half a bottle of whiskey, demanded a duel with her rival-and found herself quickly shown the door. Another, similarly offended, poured herself a large sake and made local history by shredding her kimono on the spot...
HUGH MASEKELA IS ALIVE AND WELL AT THE WHISKEY (Universal City). The doughty South African expatriate trumpeter mixes jazz and rock with a generous quotient of his native folk music.

As a man whose business is selling, Olgivy seems to have decided that the best way to sell himself is to be himself, and he can at times be disarmingly honest. When he removes his jacket in an overcrowded room to reveal bright red suspenders...
