WEST (Epic). West spent eight months rehearsing in a deserted theater in Crockett, Calif., before coming up with this album. The music they found there is warm, lyric and natural. Its sound is country-western flavored strongly with folk. Michael Stewart, the vocal backbone of the group, has written a fast-fingered guitar interview with Donald Duck that takes a poke at the Disney menagerie and a swing at President Johnson to boot: "Goofy has so much to say, he changed his place with L.B.J." Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues, the album's lead cut, shows what...

At least in many cases, the state thus avoids having to confine the bodies of witnesses to assure the presence of their words in court...

They cover such topics as "One Hundred Ways to Say 'No' to a Bond Salesman," and "How (Not) to Explain the Bond Market to Your Wife," and Homer starts off by dividing all bond salesmen into twelve species. They include Legatus Caelestis, or Messenger from Mount Olympus, who "brings you eternal verities from on high (his firm's research department) "; Garrulus Defatigare, or Sophisticate, who bears "a bored air of nonchalance and yards...
