the late Duane Allman on slide
guitar weaves a song which,
unlike most solo-oriented rock
music, is a total group effort
with each person adding to the
overall song.
Jimi Rendrix's version of
"All Along the Watchtower" shows
the versatility•on guitar that
made him a legend in his own
time. Bob Dylan has written
many songs for many people,
but I count this as one of his
best and together, they are un
beatable.
"The Allman Brothers Live
at The Fillmore," has to be one
of the finest live albums ever
recorded. It shows to the hilt
the full versatility of American
rock music, from the heavy blues '
of "Stormy Monday" to the Jazz
like melodies of "Hot Lanta."
Duane Allman was one of the
best guitarists to come out of
rock, and his position will
probably be unchallenged for
quite a while.
Emerson, Lake, and Palmer's
first album shows a blending of
classical and Jazz styles that
is near perfect. Each member of ,
the trio is an expert in his
own field, and with songs like
"Lucky Man" and "Take a Pebble",
listening to this album is
sheer pleasure.
And finally, the last album I
feel to be one of the best
would have to be the original
record of the rock opera'Tommy:
We now have many rock operas,
musicals, and masses written
in traditional form, but "Tommy'
was one of the first, and ac
curately could be called a
trend setter. Very few albums
are made with the degree of
preciseness and professionalism
of this one.
These few selections by
no means close the category, but
I think I have selected those
songs and albums that are
really the best.

SUPPORT
How about that? High
acres finally got some sup
port with an activity. In the
past Highacres sponsored
Gravel and Bruce Vanderpool,
neither which got the attend
ance they deserved. "The
Falling-Out" featuring "Haji,"
a local rock band, got the sup
port it deserved. HAJI made
some fantastic listening music.
A lot of people were saying
how great they were. I
couldn't agree more. The mel
odies were good and very tight
ly put together. I would sug
gest,.however, that if you
like good music events at High
acres you might get off your
backsides and come support
activities instead of com
plaining there is nothing to
do!

a foolish wit.
