By HARRY HAMMITT
Towards the end of 1968 and
the beginning of 1969 there were
strong and- sudden changes on
the British music scene. Success-
ful groups were breaking up and
new combinations of successful
performers were beginning to
take shape. The era of the super-
group was born.
Most famous of these super-
groups was Blind Faith who were
immeidately successful because
all the members were already
well-known. But supergroups lead
to personality clashes and Blind
Faith broke up after a short life.
Oddly enough, when the sup-
ergroup era is referred to, writ-
ers often mention anotheraEn-
glish band besides Blind Faith.
The band, Humble Pie, certainly
didn't make an immediate im-
pression in America and it has
only been lately, after they've
been around three to four years,
that they have firmly establish-
ed themselves in the United
States.
It is questionable whether
Humble Pie could ever be refer-
red to as a supergroup; they.
pale in terms of already estab-
lished success in comparison
with Blind Faith. They gained
most of their notoriety from the
British music press.
The bands that Humble Pie
came from were well-established
in England, but not greatly pop-
ular in the United States. Prob-
ably the best known of the
groups was Spooky Tooth which
yielded up bassist Greg Ridley.
The two main members of the
band, Peter Frampton, guitar,
vocals, and Steve Marriott, gui-
tar, vocals, keyboards, and har-
monica,both came from promi-
nent but small British bands.
Frampton came from the Herd,
and Marriott, who may well be
the most familiar member of the
band to American audiences,
came from the Small Faces,
who have now found vast popu-
larity with some new members.
Drummer Jerry Shirley hadn't
played in any bands of note.
The band wanted to work their
way up slowly, and since they
didn't live up to their type, they
floundered from the beginning.
As Marriott says, they have
spent most of their time until
now living down their original
supergroup image. The band
was so unknown in the United
States that their first records
weren't released here except in
limited quantities.
Now that they have a decent
U.S. distribution, their first two
albums have been released in
the United States.
The albums are together in
one package called "Lost and
Found" (A&M SP 3513).tThe in-
dividual ntmes of the two re-
cords are As Safe As Yesterday
Is and Town and Country.
Upon hearing these two re-
cords it is amazing that Humble
Pie didn't make a big splash im-
mediately because the two re-
cords are uniformily excellent.
It must be remembered that
these records were released in
1969 so nothing new can right-
fully be expected, but it is as-
tounding how fresh the material
is on this album.
The band does perhaps half of
their numbers with acoustic
guitars and the other half with
electric guitars. The material ,is
generally blues - folk related,
mostly original with a very fine
choice of unoriginal material,
and one straight cop of Chuck
Berry's "Little Queenie." There's
nothing that's really new by to-
day's stndards, but the music is
ahead of its time.
The musicians have been ser-
iously underrated because their
playing exhibits a great sense
of feeling and timing, and is ab-
solutely flawless. The strongest
interplay is between Frampton
and Marriott who are continuous-
ly inspired to new heig'

By HERB BOWIE
Gore Vidal's An Evening with
Richard Nixon is such an unam-
bitious play that I can't help
wondering why he wrote it. Un-
like most records dealing with
politics, the recently released
soundtrack of Vidal's play is not
very funny. Except for a few pa-
thetic attempts at humor ("In
his quest for reelection Richard
Nixon is quite capable of mail-
ing the White House brick-by-
brick to Albania"), it doesn't
even trydto be funny.
Nor does the play have any
other redeeming aesthetic val-
ues. Vidal's role of author con-
sisted mainly of research, n o t
creation. The backbone of the
play is a series of selected state-
ments that Nixon has actualy
made. The character Nixon
speaks the lines, with the ghosts
of former Presidents Washing-
ton, Eisenhower, and Kennedy
making comments that are rare-
ly witty and almost never en-
lightening. The result barely de-
serves to be called a play, much
les drama.
Although Vidal's work is an
aesthetic disaster, it does make
a point: Nixon's sole firm poli-
tical conviction down through
the years has been his abiding
belief that he deserves reelec-
tion.
The question is: so what? What
Vidal apparently fails
is that nearly every
already realizes this

fair: Nixon's "law an

Orchestra has been shown in
September for D e t r o i t area
schools, and at that time was
"greatly acclaimed."
A typical evening at Barbour
begins with the dancers warming
up like athletes. Next the group
practices American in Paris. The
broken up groups, covering the
floor with their intricate move-
ments, practice African and ab-
stract dance as well as the Emo-
tion, Words, and Sound-Motion
components of modern dance.
Often o u t s i d e lecturers are
present.
"Young people should realize the
obvious advantages of modern
dance - physical fitness and
involvement with people."
-Edith Embree
Just Moving is concerned with
human beings, and the Company
has toured correctional institu-
tions in the past. In addition, lec-
ture demonstrations have been
performed for area musical so-
cieties and public schools.
Prof. Embree's Company meets
in Barbour Gym Monday and
Wednesday nights 7:00-10:00. For
anyone just starting in the field,
there are introductory teaching
sessions on Saturday 12:00-5:00
at Barbour Gym. Yoga, Modern
Dance, African, Jazz, Flamingo
are presented.

better wait till he appearsmon

enlightening and much more en-

(WABX Airwaves) - At a Bea-
ver Falls, Pennsylvania, rock
concert recently, 6,000 fans were
stunned when a hearse with a
police escort pulled into the con-
cert area and unloaded a casket
on the stage. An unidentified man
stood up and began to eulogize
a lately-deceased person named
"Bob", who died of an overdose
of drugs. In the middle of the
eulogy, the casket slowly creak-
ed open and "Bob" climbed out,
gave a speech about how he found
a new life after he kicked drugs,
and then walked off the stage.
The concert, casket, speeches
and miracle, it turned out, were
sponsored by the Beaver Falls
Police Department.
